Lottery is not encouraging as it were used to be then when people will be tripping to fill up the application for lottery, maybe due to the advanceent in gambling or to the reason that people don't want to risk the possibility of not been accepted for lottery whenever they applied, something like this will not attract the interest of people more not to say using their money for its application, well maybe if there's a free one some may be willing to give an attempt than spending their money applying, they will rather prefer it goes on gambling than lottery.

You're right, we easily get attrated to things we often see everytime, in the case of gambling, if the gsm ker encounter any thing that draws his attention back to gambling, such could be an avenue to go back to where he left and continue gambling, but nevertheless, we have to make a decision and also work towards abstaining from anything that will have to do with gambling enabling environment which could grabt us access to gamble, with hen everything around us is not working towards have the opportunity to gamle, we will be left with no choice than to embrace not gambling.

Exactly, something that is done and dusted should not have more priority like this, if OP is interested in making some translations or want to hunt for merits in doing this, i think there's a thread created by fillippone on beginners and help section that request his topics being translated in local languages and he award merits for doing that, OP can as well applied for the translation but beating up the dead horse in this case makes no sense at all except if the translation is aimed on recent community award which i believe none is out yet.

Have you heard about this that the empty vessels make the loudest noise, you can't compare bitcoin to other cryptocurrencies, those altcoins were here to duplicate what bitcoin has already made as a standard, so if I were you, i will rather go for bitcoin which is the main digital currency than lobbying round about crypto projects that were there to excites me today and make me cry tomorrow, what do you want to settle for? Reliability or advertisement, bitcoin is not struggling to compete with any other cryptocurrencies, they are rather struggling to look like bitcoin, deceivebothers and scam their investor victims, but if you think bitcoin is less valued or profitable, try alts and learn your lessons.

How do we know the specifics user that first join the forum when there's no record of the first naija community member to join the forum, just as you've been told by uchegod, we have many Nigerians here and it's only those who deemed fit to identify themselves here are the ones we recognized, but believe me there are many of them on the forum yet to come up to the naija local board than English discussion board only, knowing the first person to join the forum is not what matters like those standing together with the naija local board community.

You will have to discover that at some certain point in time, people tries to get distracted by what others are doing because they don't have the mindset to bear it anymore, which is part of what led so many of them in doing what is not it, minding ones business is very important because it helps have an adequate concentration in doing what is right and how it is expected to be done, but then you will discover others leaving what should be done undone and chasing after what does not concern them while wasting their time they would have invested on work.

Long time investment is good as well as the short time investment if he can go on bitcoin trading as long as he knows how to do about it, some people already have the trading experience and can go trading but the fund to begin is what they lack, bitcoin invested is profitable on either of the means, where we are all arriving at is to make an additional increase upon what we already have to sum up our bitcoin holding through the investment made.

You may habe the challenge of teust with wvom you may be dealing with on the exchange rate you may try to buy or sell your bitcoin,most people prefer exchanges because they know that they are reliable in that aspect, p2p with centralized exchanges is still p2p but the exchange used is centralized.


Best use case but we have to be sure the exchange we are using are truly decentralized.


There's nothing bad in that but we should still be aware that it makes no difference in the se se that they are still identified as p2p despite being under centralized which would obviously mean that we call the other one DEp2p

Has there been a certain point earning merits was made simple before? What you give out will determine what you will receive back, if I were you, all i will do is to give more on quality post to get me attracted to those that can see meaningful ideas in what i post and merit my posts.


Nothing more than a quality post.


Being on the forum for a year indicates your long stay but being a member rank after a year of joining indocates things aren't done the appropriate way, you need to be active and always give out the best, learn more and have enough to give a d contribute to the forum.


Good of you, but i wonder how long you can do this and how far it can go because you're most needed of merits than those you're willing to give.

This is very simple, if you're underaged, wait for your time to come before you started gambling, if you're gambling without having the idea on how to responsibly gamble, many things might be at stakes and you couldn't help the situation than to keep on loosing the ore you gamble, whereby you could have make use of that same gambling opportunities to invest on other quality things to aid your development in all aspects of live.

I've watched one of the most prolific and hilarious movie on gambling which titles B13, maybe some of us would have watched this same movie because it's all about gambling but in this time, a bet that uses human lives as stakes which is very bad, one of the main actors that features the movie is 50cent, you could imagine a situation where gambling like that expressed in the movie exist and people still do it all because of the big money involved.

Gambling may appear first to begin place but in the theories of life, overtaking is allowed, it's very possible for you to see many gamblers that make use of bitcoin for their gambling while it may be rare to see many bitcoin investors into gambling because they are there to make money through bitcoin while gambling will only take more money away from them which would have been used for an investment.


When it comes to statistics on their differences, bitcoin has gone far ahead to be more acceptable than the rejection some give to gambling due to religious and other ethical believes traditionally.

We all might have been in need of money in one way or the other that pushed us towards seeking for more secured means to see that we are better with life challenges and the next we could thought of was to use gambling as a quick means of getting the financial opportunity needed to meet up with our needs, we may sometimes end up getting some money and may not in some cases, but all we needed is to see that our motives arrived at a good destination by seeking financial assistance through gambling as the last resulted remedy to get money from.

This is not the main discussion board for the merit source application, @Charles-Tim already created an application thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5360200.0 on Meta board where such discussion and application is been made, the first application he made was the general board application to be a merit source, later he bumped the thread to add up his application to apply for local board merit source as well which you could see towards the last page of the thread, he also would have PM Theymos maybe (am not sure) about his application thread, on Meta board, Theymos take time to see into threads that deals with the forum discussion whenever he's chanced, there are many other applications as well directed to him in such manners whereby members applied to be a merit source.

Even though am not a doubting Thomas but not until i see more people and banks back to using crypto and making payments from the financial institutions, i may not believe anything about this, i also expected the news to have circulated more than this because it's something that should attract more discussion on since everyone into bitcoin is involved, if truly the ban is lifted then we should also see other news channels taking this up for trending because am not trusting the source alone here, don't know if other members have more confirmations on this approval to be true.

This forum has no other replicate where you can get bitcoin information accurately than bitcointalk because Satoshi Nakamoto himself made this a community for everyone to discuss about bitcoin, not only that alone, there are many opportunities embedded with this large  community if you're a member, but it does not end alone on being a member, you will have to be an active one, you will discover there are enough boards that you can engage on discussions in different aspects of bitcoin and life in general, there a local board section as well, gambling section and economics and politics and society boards, you learn from people across every part of the world with different ideas and opinions, you also have the opportunity to promote your business or help others in promoting theirs and get paid, you keep learning about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as well each day.

You're just getting started, if you are really determined for learning you will still discover many more than this with bitcoin together with some opportunities that comes with using a decentralized digital currency like bitcoin, i believe with this your kind of move, you will always have more than you ever wanted with bitcoin over time.


Adoption opportunity is never ending in bitcoin as long as you kow how to get positioned for them


You're rightly on point because you've made the best discovery by finding bitcointalk which is the only official bitcoin discussion board and already serving it's purpose, you meet people across the world and discuss bitcoin together, but my advice for you to have a smooth experience here is to begin with reading and understanding of the forum's rules and regulations, this is the most very important first step a bitcointalk newbie should take.

Nigerian Pidgin is well recognized and believed to be a localized way of speaking English language as some may call it slangs but it's obvious that not all citizens can speak it but majority understand it, also the real English is the unified language and official speaking language in Nigeria, this makes the naija local board have a combination of two language and members could freely express themselves in the most convenient way their message could be well communicated and understood, the board indeed in fast increasing in activities for this reason with so many other reasons and having an additional merit source like Charles-Tim will encourage more members to participate on the local board discussion knowing well that their quality efforts will almost attract merits for the quality posts made, i want to believe that Theymos will see into this and consider the application together with other applicants worthy of being a merit source.

Maybe because am not the type that do ignore often, I don't seem to get familiar with this features actually, but to those that make use of the ignore button would have many encounters of the likes, but i expect not to be able to view any related quote, signature or avatar of any member on ignore list, ignore could mean having nothing to do with the user irrespective of how they have been active or contributing to the forum, because most users on ignore list were either scammers or shitposters.
