This!  This is the reason why I didn't even force anyone to adopt Bitcoin or invest in it without any of their knowledge because I know it's hard for them to understand how useful this technology is to us, I'm not telling first the profit because they might be chasing this without even understanding how volatile works.

Usually, I hate convincing people to invest in crypto, but showing them that I'm successful on it and letting them first understand how it will work might be a good step towards embracing this technology.

Back then 2018, how many scams have been reported because the number of crypto investors has been increased without proper knowledge of it. 

I tend to agree!

And, remember what theymos said if you've got only 120 IQ test scores after April Fool's Day end, you will be subjected to ban, and surely the ban hammer will directly hit into your account.

This is now how to determine the shitposters and spammers on the forum.  

Though it was stated above that you shouldn't rely on other suggestions regarding financial advice but here's my opinion regarding your questions.

Since you're talking about investment in the long term, choose a project that has been proven, tested, decentralized, and very volatile that has fast-moving in the market.  IMO, Bitcoin is the first choice and as others said, this potentially will have profit in a long term.

These are my opinions,

• Always DYOR
• Don't trust a hype project
• Always prefer on the decentralized concept
• Have a real use project

As you can see, those suggestions above were talking about Bitcoin and that's the right investment, you can sure no shitcoin behind on it.
Okay, you have 2 BNB, just buy Bitcoin using BNB and quickly transfer it into a hardware wallet or any wallet that is open-source, and make sure you've owned your private key.

Assuming that you're really a newbie, understand how to secure our crypto asset in a safe place, remember always the "Not your keys, Not your coins" policy.  It's always risky to hold for a long term in a centralized coin like what you had (BNB), it should be a truly decentralized currency.

Great service provider, but it seems ain't convince with your IQ trust score yet.

Once it will increase to 160 above, I will definitely avail of your service.

Maybe it's time to say goodbye to the Bitcointalk.org community.
I've got below 120 IQ and am subjected to being banned.  

I used once this Coinomi wallet and never thought that there is a "custom" option, when I was using this, I used the "Low" transaction option and "High" button option if you want it faster transaction which is I thought there was no other option of lowering the fees.  Thanks for enlightening me with this.

No doubt overall free app open-source wallet, the Electrum wallet is good so far for a single wallet that's intended for storing Bitcoin only.  For multi-chain or multi-coin supported, go for the hardware wallet instead.

Why did you choose the Coinomi wallet app which is a close source than the Electrum wallet which is a completely open-source wallet as your example?

It's has a great advantage when you have a hardware wallet over this USB drive, there's no protection such as a protected PIN from the device or some kind of optional passphrase.  It might USB that can be used as an airgap wallet but NOT the hardware wallet.

There's nothing wrong with people having DIY crypto wallets as long as they know how to work it technically but it's always been a crucial part that they need to take a risk.  But if you will put a large amount, why not spend a little amount to buy a hardware wallet that has built a security feature inside it doesn't leave any footprint for every transaction you have.

Go for raspberry pi for the airgap wallet than the USB Pendrive.

Op didn't come back after posting this and I want to hear about OP's opinion regarding those suggestions and comments above which are right and wise advice.

I didn't aginst here with the Coinomi wallet regarding the security, it can be trusted even though it's a closed source multi-coin wallet (it's better than other web wallets).  The thing that I don't like about this wallet is that has high fees and sometimes it takes more time before it will be synced into the node.  But for a single wallet like storing Bitcoin, I would rather choose Electrum over Coinomi.

I think open source and close source don't matter to me IMO, as long as you know how to keep your private key safe you'll be fine.
For cold wallets, it's fair enough to use hardware wallets or airgap wallets, they're surely safe and never hold a big amount on any hot wallets.

This topic shouldn't be here.

But to answer your question here's my suggestion if you have got a private key you can use it to export into another wallet and maybe this will help you.

Make sure that the node is properly connected to the BCH network so that it will sync in and show the real balance and also, make sure that you've downloaded the latest version.

I don't know if this Coinomi wallet is good to recommend if you have concerns about fees, I hate using this wallet because of its very high fees especially swapping coins.  Op can split the BCH and eCash using Electrum ABC and Electron Cash, for further information see this, Splitting eCash and BCH coins using Electrum ABC and Electron Cash.

Sent the remaining balance and the delayed interest, it's now fully paid.  Thank you.

This should be on the Speculation board, you will see there is a lot of speculation regarding Bitcoin price prediction.

It's too early for me to say that Bitcoin becomes a bullish trend, we didn't yet break the wall of the previous price and considering another new ATH is coming.

I know there are a lot of positive predictions from our expert traders but for sure all of them are still guessing and predicting the market price, nothing more.

For now, let's wait for that when it will happen, the price of Bitcoin will go up when it goes up.

How many winners should be able to win this prize?
That's too much and I don't even trust if someone given that large amount as a prize.  I don't find any accuse towards them at this moment so I didn't give any feedback or discrimination against them.  Just try a little amount that you can afford to lose if you're willing to try, but there's no assurance about their legitimacy and that's what we worried about.

It's an unknown platform and doesn't have enough reputation, it's now your call if you will use this platform but as others do, a highly recommend stay away and don't lure they've offered.

It's indeed!
That's why we shouldn't chase our losses and control our greediness.  And maybe you forgot to add this in OP, it should also have a stop loss so that you can minimize your losses once there is.

I know it's very easy to say these things but for sure it's hard to do this especially when you forgot your goal.  Trading it's always been crucial, we should have these skills, knowledge plus instinct.
It's all about how we can manage ourselves in trading, there's no shortcut, everything should gain with pain.

I tend to agree with those stated OP above except on these two options, store in your memory and password manager it seems not a good option IMO.

Storing in your brain is not good because I tried it before, years had passed for sure you will forget those seed phrases that you store in your mind, we aren't computers that we can able to save the file in our mind, it might a matter I days or week you will forget those phrases.

Store password on manager seems the risk too, it's a third-party app that you shouldn't trust.  I have seed phrases that wrote on the book, each word as I was spread on the different pages just like a birth month and birth day, that's maybe a good idea to confuse and not easy to track.

@Ratimov made a huge list regarding a [BIG LIST] Buy/Sell Crypto (OTC, P2P, DEXs, CEXs, NO-KYC, ATMs, etc.), you can visit that thread and understand it very well.

First, what's OTC?  It's "Over the Counter".
So IMO, the platform that has hosted OTC or is an act of an escrow or a middleman between two parties trading transactions could be swapping crypto or crypto to fiat.  As I heard, buying and selling large amounts on the P2P transaction or OTC is you may encounter difficulties in trading assuming that on this kind of platform there are fewer traders.

I trust no one except on Bisq and Hodlhodl, they're fully decentralized, and it is very safe to trade p2p.

Choosing a good exchange is a good start and where you can entrust your money and let them hold it for your trading activities.
So you've chosen the Binance exchange which is a good pick, they've supported many coins listed on that platform and not only trading, either staking is also available on their platform.

I suggest having first knowledge and skills in trading and don't expect too much profit from the start because you're building up an experience there's a possibility of losing your fund.  You should always be ready when to decide to start trading, it's very crucial and not easy of making money and I hope you understand that in trading, earning isn't the most subjective, earning experience too is a must.

Ain't have much experience in trading but based on my past experience, I always look forward to my mistakes and errors that will not happen again in the next session in my trading.  Trading is very crucial for me and it's hard to earn money there, ain't even know how to have a fundamental and technical analysis and that's why as of now, I preferred to invest in the long term which is I saw that there's potential than trading.

By doing this, you don't have a miserable experience in trading.

• Be always in a long term
• Manage risk
• Diversify your portfolio if it's neccesarry
• Avoid pump and dump coins

You know the Bitcoin network is really good and smart, once the transaction has a confirmation even it's one confirmation, it will be confirmed and once there's a confirmation, it's an irreversible transaction.

All comments above are right, this is just an addition and a friendly reminder.
The safe transaction should always have to wait for at least 3 confirmations on the network, that's usually considered as a safe transaction and can't even be canceled through RBF.  You can't broadcast two the same transaction at once, it should always be one transaction.

You're in the right place to start with, just keep reading and spend your precious time here to gather more information about Bitcoin and other stuff behind it.  We're a community here and you are free to ask if there's something that you don't understand.  I was once in your situation when I was a newbie and I understand you very well on seeking the right information, that's a wise decision to always verify what you've heard.

See you around and I hope someday you will learn everything about Bitcoin.  It has an advantage always if we know much more about how Bitcoin works and it starts here in the forum.
