COLD UNTIL AUGUST - TAKE NOTE:
Starting tomorrow at 5:00 AM: for 27 hours we will experience the APHELION PHENOMENON.
The Earth will be very far from the Sun
We cannot see the phenomenon, but we CAN feel its impact. It will last until the month of August.
We will have colder weather than ever before, which can lead to flu, coughing, difficulty breathing, etc.
We must boost our immunity by using plenty of vitamins and supplements to strengthen our health.
The distance from the Earth to the Sun is normally 5 light-minutes or 90 million km.
During the Aphelion phenomenon, we are 152 million km away from the Sun — that’s 66% further.
The air will become colder, and our bodies are not used to this temperature — it is a significant difference.
We must maintain our health as best we can. Whether it is cloudy or sunny, the cold will increase just the same!!!
Please share this information with all your family and friends, as many people as possible, so they too can take precautions.
LET'S TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES!!
That information was sent to my family WhatsApp group so I found it necessary to pass it on so people who are yet to know about it would gain knowledge and take precautions. When I came across this message I had to research on that phenomenon and discovered that it's not false, infact it's something that should be taken seriously since it concerns our health and could affect our well being if overlooked. For those that don't understand what APHELION PHENOMENON is all about, it's a phenomenon that occurs when the sun is very far from the earth and occurs mostly this period which is the month of July, that report said it could last till August next month but from my research I found out it starts from 3rd July and sometimes ends after 4th.
When the sun goes far from the earth it makes the weather very cold and comes with several illnesses, this message is very important for those that battle with illnesses relating to cold, well everyone needs to be precautious too but them especially, we need to cover ourselves properly and get good vitamins like Vitamin C and E to aid our health through this period since they have good medical properties that could strengthen the body system against illness and possible diseases. Health Is Wealth so we need to live and maintain a healthy life, stay safe everyone!.

Lately I've been seeing funny contents that's trending on the media, made me laugh out loud, we all know that laughter can serve as a good medicine, it can boost our immune because when we laugh it triggers a chemical called endorphins that's responsible for relieving pains and boosting our mood thereby making us happier. here's a link to the videos. Burn The Witch!!! Anyway I have a spell that can make Theymos give every active member of this forum 1BTC each.  |

First off, I have to acknowledge the holy book because it gave me the inspiration to create this thread "James 2:17-26" it adviced Christian believers that having faith or hoping for a positive result without putting much effort to make it manifest is as good as dead. I've found out that many Nigerian believers are fund of this practice and it's part of the reason why some are still struggling to be financially stable, you'll see people praying for positive results without putting much effort to make it work. I had a discussion with some dude and he was like he loves Bitcoin and would love to own a fair portion of it someday he even said he's praying for God to give him like 1 BTC, honestly i laughed out loud cause his statement was so funny, like you're praying to have 1 BTC but you're not working hard to own it or putting effort to own a fair portion of it, makes to sense at all. My advice to him was that every Bitcoin believers have hope for a better future, and instead of praying for God to give him Bitcoin, he should get a job if he doesn't have any then start buying Bitcoin gradually and according his income, Bitcoin investment is not some spiritual battle you fight against with prayers, you own it by putting effort towards owning it, which is buying then Hodling for a long period to make more future profits, I believe that my advice would help him change that mentality and work towards getting the amount of Bitcoin he wishes to have in the future. |

The market is red thereby causing panic amongst investors, the new ones are worried they feel the dip season is here, the old folks are seizing the opportunity cause they see no reason to panic but rather a chance to buy cheaper, however there's a phrase every investor should key into whether new or old investors which is After The Rain Comes Sunshine and that's just it, since it's in the nature of Bitcoin to undergo volatility.
This is just a phase and everyone should keep hodling, many who's witnessed similar thing occur in the past would see no reason to worry cause it would fall just like the rain and rise again like the sun in due time, so my colleagues, friends and investors in the forum keep Hodling and avoid making bad decisions cause After The Dip Comes an Upsurge and a potential new ATH.

I'm fully aware that match fixing exist but I've also noticed that most of these online punter use that as an opportunity to scam people, they feed greedy gamblers with the mentality that they got fixed games and lure them into their so called VIP groups either on Telegram or WhatsApp where they'll pay to get the games, it's a trap and people should avoid punters like that when they come across them on the media, especially on Twitter.
Sometimes scammers do clone the account of some punters without Vip groups on Telegram and you'll be suprised how easy they lure people into paying for what they call sure or fix games. In my own point of view, you can't beat the house so there's no such thing as sure games, what those scammers do is select 3 to 4 odds with a good potential of winning and give to their victims on first trial and ask them to stake very high, that would lure them back into paying for another game if it works and if it doesn't your money is gone, people should take note and avoid paying for VIP games.

 From the image you could see CZ speculating the price of bitcoin in the future, Bitcoin wasn't even close to $30k when he made that speculation but then Bitcoin got past $101k in recent time and it's acting according to his speculations, you all shouldn't misunderstand his speculations and the dip shouldn't cause tension but should be used as an opportunity to buy more cheaper or a motivation to keep adding to your portfolio ahead of the future. You can see that his speculations in recent time is way beyond what the current price is. Men like him, so much believe in the potential of Bitcoin and have already had a clear imagination of what it would look like in times to come and that's why they come up with speculations like these to encourage people towards preparing ahead. The price of $1m might seem unrealistic to some people, I don't know how long it would take for that to occur but I believe it's realistic and Bitcoin is heading upwards that' direction in the future and if one starts now to prepare for it then the better for the person, I know some people didn't believe that Bitcoin could attain $100k but here we're even though it currently undergoing a correction phase but it would still surge again so keep buying and hold for the future. |

The market is bleeding and while many traders are crying and lamenting over the current market situation, Bitcoin holders have to reason to get worried, infact why would they get worried when they're aware that Bitcoin is undergoing a correction and is gearing up for a possible all time high in the near future, they're aware that so far the DCA is implemented in their hodling journey it would enable them to scale through lose and multiply their profits when a pump occurs again, Bitcoin holders are very optimistic about the future of the coin and therefore they have no reason to worry concerning the current market situation but would see it as an advantage of adding more Bitcoin to what they're hodlng.
Those are the privileges that traders do not have and that's why they get emotional over every negative situation of the market, traders easily get depressed, go through trauma and worry often when the market is down but Bitcoin holders doesn't share similar fate since their goal and target is focused on the future, you'll never hear people say they regret hodling Bitcoin even when the market is down, because they're fully aware volatility would always play it's role concerning what the outcome of the price overtime would be and it's nothing to be worried about. Every Bitcoin holder is a King, cause they're built differently.

 An Iraqi refugee known as Salwan Momika has been killed in his house at Sweden for burning the Quaran, he's was known for making provocative videos about the Muslim religion and buring the Quaran, the news have it that his act triggered some angry Muslims to murder him just to prove a point, too bad his actions led to his death and I don't think death was the solution. I'm not in support of Salwan's actions anyways, I don't know if he was doing it for clicks on the media nor hatred for Muslim religion but every religion is sacred be it Christianity, Muslim or whatsoever moreover the Quaran is a Holybook so he shouldn't be publicly disrespecting it and now his actions has lead to his death. Anyways it's so unfair that he had to die, and I hope the authorities get the culprits who killed him, this case should serve as a lesson for people to respect each others religion so as to avoid provocations and get killed, Rest In Peace Salwan Momika. |

 One thing I dislike about people like him is that they claim to know it all, but at the end time will tell that they know nothing about Bitcoin, he claims Microstrategy is a fraud that would collapse alongside Bitcoin but forgets that the coin is 15 years and counting, I see no sense in his statement cause i don't believe that even though volatility occurs, Bitcoin would ever drop more than 50% of it's current price it could probably drop to 60k or around that figure during the bear season but definitely not $17k. He forgets about the U.S strategic reserve and how it would trigger other major economy like China, Russia and the rest to jump aggressively into the market thereby giving btc a support from droping to that point during the bear season. People like this would make lots of people on the media miss out on participating in digging this digital gold against the future. Well, i just hope no one takes his words seriously cause i could remember some Peter Schiff who saw no future with bitcoin and claim it would never reach 100k however i believe he'll be hiding his face in shame concerning that statement and just like him, people like Jacob King would learn the hard way, i just love what someone in the comment Section said to him, "Time would teach him some lessons". |

 First off, in about a week or days ago if am not mistaken, Bitcoin surpassed Silver to take up the position of the top seven ranking assets, that's was a very big win and a motivation for Bitcoiners to value their asset and keep holding, now here's another good new concerning Microstrategy which is one of the biggest holders of Bitcoin currently and from the news on Cointelegraph, the company's holding just surpassed IBM and Nike's holdings in cash. To be honest, $26 billion worth of Bitcoin of Bitcoin is not something to joke about, that's a fortune and if a company such as Microstrategy would keep adding too their reserve instead of selling it means they've pictured the future and saw that you can't write it without including Bitcoin, it's the future and there's better times ahead. Also, never forget that a win for Bitcoin is win for every Bitcoin holders, Cheers. |

I stumbled upon a news on cointelegraph concerning someone claiming to be Satoshi and when I open the news to see the identity of who our beloved Satoshi Nakamoto is, I discovered someone new entirely known as Stephen Mollah, I immediately surfed the web to know who the person behind the name is then I discovered it's trending with different links on the web talking about the name claiming to be the creator of Bitcoin. According to the news from Cointelegraph, Stephen Mollah was approached by lots of journalists at an event that took place in London, the journalists where so eager to finally meet the person behind the mystery name Satoshi Nakamoto but were so disappointed when Mollah failed to prove he's the real Satoshi. Furthermore, Mr Mollah explained his background and says he is an economic and monetary scientist. He says he previously tried to out himself as Satoshi in 2016 but someone stopped him then , he tried again by speaking to the BBC’s Rory Cellan-Jones who interviewed him but didn’t publish a story. My thought is that after the failed documentary by HBO concerning the identity of Satoshi, I think more people would come out claiming to be Satoshi, the so called Mollah is not the end of it and several others would want to trend with false claims about being Satoshi Nakamoto, if Mollah was the real Satoshi he would've been exposed by the CIA before now and I believe that the CIA might not know who Satoshi is and even if they do they'll want to keep it a secret and that's why the identity is still anonymous even after up to 15 years of creation. https://www.google.com/amp/s/bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-inventor-event-stephen-mollah-satoshi/amp/https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://cointelegraph.com/news/bizarre-event-names-stephen-mollah-satoshi-nakamoto&ved=2ahUKEwj79Z_nvbyJAxVwQEEAHd-4CkgQFnoECB4QAQ&usg=AOvVaw3mf3P_rHl4ZESC8q9t2xjz |

I've seen people argue about how social media has been used to spread fake news about Cryptocurrency and someone even said it's killing Crypto cause lots of people have been scammed of their Cryptocurrency through links they come across on the media well my thought to that statement is that the media didn't force them to click on those links and they fell victim to scammers on the media due to ignorance or greed. Well even though the first statement might be right cause paid actors use the media to deceive people into wrong choices of crypto investments, however everything got it's disadvantage and benefits too.
Well, humans are prone to react negatively to certain things especially when they're the victims and some have even blamed the media for their carelessness, however it may be, the media has it's benefits to Cryptocurrency and has caused a recent mass adoption of Cryptocurrencies be it Bitcoin or Altcoins. For instance, Cryptocurrency is the new trend when it comes to finance and one the fastest ways to know about new trends is the social media.
Another instance is the airdrop fever, the airdrop have been ongoing for years now but social media through telegram and Ton blockchain has caused a mass participation of airdrops lately compared to previous times and to crown it all, telegram which is one of the biggest social media platform have even got their own exchange and wallet where it's users can easily purchase Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5507048.0 I created this topic to counter that thread in the link above. Well he might be right but it depends on the Cryptocurrency though and to clarify his statement, first off you need to know what an asset means and according to the Oxford dictionary as asset could be classified as a useful or valiable thing or person now this brings us to the conclusion that is Bitcoin a thing? Yes a digital currency, is it useful? Yes it's used for carrying out transactions, does it have value? Yes it does and it's value has increased over time in different circles. Those physical assets (Real estate, precious metals, oil etc) you just mentioned comes natural and can be regenerated by nature yes owners can use them for different purposes like he stated but then likewise Bitcoin, it's not physical but can be used and is currently used for carrying out transactions and unlike other assets what gives Bitcoin it's value it's the Volatility, so he should stop trying to give people the impression that it's not an asset Bitcoin is a digital asset.

I've come across several Bitcoin news channels and groups talking about whales accumulating more bitcoin and small holders panic selling, the recent one that got me curious is a news from (Crypto Insider) a Cryptocurrency news channels on telegram that's said, in August alone about 283 or more wallets surpassed the 100 $BTC mark.
It further stated there that in total, over the past 30 days wallets with the balance 10 to 10,000 $BTC have accumulated over 100k $BTC worth about $7.6b and that has got me curious as to why the small scale holders do panic and sale instead of holding whereas those who got more than enough are seriously accumulating more.
My thought is that, why can't they emulate those whales in holding or accumulating more , is it that they lack the funds to accumulate more, or they don't trust Bitcoin, or they went into the market without any idea of how Bitcoin operates, what do you think could be the reason why shrimps panic sale instead of accumulating like whales?

I just learnt from the news that Vladimir Putin (Russian President) has sanctioned an experimental use of Cryptocurrency for foreign and national transactions and that the Russian Central Bank would oversee the process of Cryptocurrency use and it would be effective from the 1st of September, which is about three days from now.
Well, this could serve as a good news to Cryptocurrency users since Russian as a big country with large economy could influence the market cause since they've been banned from carrying out international transactions with most countries with their local currency, the Cryptocurrency would now make it possible and everyone would switch to using it for international transactions.
I just hope they use Bitcoin (which is the best alternative) for carrying out international transactions and with that being said, this could cause a hike in various Cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin, i think the market would be more favorable by September what do you think?

There's a widespread viral disease in some part of Africa and it's in Nigeria currently, this viral disease is called Monkey Pox and it's recently spreading in the South Eastern part of Nigeria currently especially in Enugu and Ebonyi state, about thirty six people have been infected with this disease in Enugu state while four out of those thirty six have been treated and discharged whereas just one person is confirmed currently in the Nigerian Canter For Disease Control (NCDC) center, Ebonyi state.
My reason for creating this post is cause it was said by NTA international in a news yesterday that according to the NCDC, many citizens across the nation are not aware of this recent disease that could be contacted by merely coming in contact with someone who already contacted the disease, I believe some people here might have heard of it but since the government through NCDC are currently creating awareness, i decided to bring it to the notice of our brothers here to be careful and report suspected cases maybe from neighbours or direct relatives to the nearest health center in their areas.
According to news from NTA international, it's not as deadly as the Covid 19 and persons who contacted this disease can be cured and treated free by the government if reported immediately to the nearest government hospital and the symptoms of this disease are as follow;
Fever
Muscle/back ache
Sore throat
Pimple like sores with pox
Severe headache.
Well asides this information passed, health is wealth and everyone needs to be cautious of their health and go for regular check-ups.

According to the International debt report as at last year, Nigeria is owing the world bank about $15.45billion, also the combination of serval reports has shown that currently the countries debt if you include all the debts they owe World Bank, IMF and some countries have sumed up to $91.46 billion, but instead of looking for ways to be debt free or gradually clear some portion of the debts, this present regime is still embarking on more loans from the World Bank.
I saw in a report on X by @Nigeria Stories that President Tinibu's led government is seeking for a $500 million loan from World Bank to support health initiative, health initiative indeed, the questions are, what have they done with the previous loans? How have it helped the economic situation of our country? According to a report on the 15th of this month by Daily Post, the US Court has authorised Chinese investors to seize Nigeria's Assets.
That's a big slap to our Nation yet they're not worried but still demanding more loans, I just hope the World Bank turn them down cause they're a disgrace to our Nation. A sensible government led by President Ibrahim Traore just recently turned down loan proposals by IMF and he's trying to set his countries to financial stability, if Burkina Faso can do it why can't our own leaders, this has lead to my conclusion that the Nigerian government is not only greedy and foolish but wicked to it's citizens.

Many people in my country still don't believe in Cryptocurrency and would rather save or invest with local banks but the recent sad event would serve as an eye opener to them. One of the top leading banks in my country (GTB) got there server invaded by hackers, some period before it happened they where advising customers to buy their shares and many customers did, I feel so sorry for those who bought shares with them cause their money is probably gone.
Whereas investors could only lose totally on Cryptocurrency when they fail to invest on Bitcoin or other good Cryptocurrencies and instead invest on shit coins, or they save their assets on a custodial wallet instead of a non-custodial one, else Cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin is one of the best and safest investment any investor could think of.
I wonder why anyone would even think of buying shares with a local bank or saving huge part of their money with them, when they could save for a long-term with Bitcoin and make huge returns later, Bitcoin blockchain makes it very secured and the only ways an investor is at risk is saving their asset with a wallet that could easily be penetrated by hackers or fail to safeguard their private keys.

Procrastination: I call this the slow killer of destiny, it has caused setback for many people, there are some life changing opportunities that occurs just once and many have failed to seize it, why? Cause of Procrastination. Well, one of the best ways to tackle it is to set target, implement your goals and work towards actualizing it.
Wrong circle of friends: Your circle of friends could determine your level of success, there's this advice my dad always use to motivate us, he said a poor person in the circle of five rich people is a potential rich person, and that's cause the person would get informations or help from other friends to elevate him/her. One mustn't only consider rich friends but atleast your circle of friends should be with people who's got the mindset of acquiring wealth and are working towards achieving it.
Fear of failure: The fear of failure has caused setback to many people, once someone kill there fears and go into a business, investment or project with the mind-set of success such person is bound to succeed so far they're working hard enough but once fear is entertained it could cause the person to easily give up on actualising their dreams.
Fear of risk taking: Taking risk could be harmful if not calculated but not taking risk is even worst cause their are many opportunities involved in taking risks, a good percentage of successful people today are risk takers, so I believe the journey to success still requires taking risks.
I believe there's lots more, but these are the ones I could think of however you could add more if you know any cause I believe these informations could serve as a motivations to some people who would come across this thread.
