Usually, UTXOs are used in bitcoin for validating transactions and also calculating the total sum of all the UTXOs locked to an address.
In my understanding, the new token protocol "O-UTXO"you elaborated serves same purpose as UTXOs, so my question here is, what different purpose does this new protocol serves, or is it the modification of UTXOs?
And also, is O-UTXOs also stored in chainstate database?

You really boost my horizon on how the whole forum works, in a simple statement; we are all here to share and receive knowledge, one gets accolade by the knowledge he shares for the benefit of others.

How long it takes isn't what to consider, but how well you understand it. One thing i'll assure you is that learning slow yield better result. Here are some guide lines:
1: Get a tutor,
2: Take your time and learn the basic fundamentals
3: Have one or two community you are into,
4: Develop a strategy on how to approach the market
5: work on your strategy
6: 5
7: 4 and 5
8: 7.

I could go on and give you an elaborate details on the subject  topic "node", but since your questions are specific, i'll be concise.
Node are more or less a medium of communication that sends, receive or processes bitcoin data. Node performs two main task:
(i)keeps duplicate copy of the blockchain, just like your phone keeps records of your calls in "call logs" and messages in "message inbox", and with this information your node has, it can perform it second task which is.
(ii)validate those information and relay or carry out new transactions and blocks.
All you need to run a bitcoin node is a computer and an internet connection, just as all you need to make a phone call or send a text message is a phone and a SIM card.

My own experience about trading these coins and my view is that, trading is a side gig not a permanent job, as the user doesn't enjoy health insurance or retirement plans.
Meaning, to have a side gigs, you need to secure a permanent job with a monthly or weekly payment, so as to trade efficiently, what makes a winner is the courage he possess, having a side gigs will go a long way in boosting that courage.
The second key element is patience; knowing about market flow is something that has to do with careful analysis and patiently waiting for the wave to come to you, heeding to the fact that you can't change the direction of the flow, so learn how to follow it.

The reasons why people buy bitcoin is all the same; to make profit from the initial investment, but the approach towards the market might varies due to level of thought or mentality.
But one thing i'm certain is that, 1:2 of bitcoin investors are pushing to be capitalist rather than the communist the government wants the citizens to remain. I see bitcoin investors as individuals who wish to take control of their wealth in their own hands, they wish to go through the pain and the joy that the market may bring, rather than saving up money in the bank and letting others use it.
They chose to work for themselves to gain wealth.

Speculating if cryptocurrency is suitable investment to engage into?
Ask yourself these questions:
¡. How well do you know the crypto world
¡¡. Can you handle the risk it comes with?
¡¡¡. Do you have a side gigs to always bring you back up when you lost a trade?
If you choose to invest considering the factors above, then you should note this:
a. If you want to invest into crypto, particularly bitcoin, you should know the value of blockchain and why theory like mining and cryptography hash (decoder which receives variable length to return output of a fixed length) are of great value to its function.
b. Also, one of the important fundamentals is staying up wth crypto trending news.
After your observation about how the economic work, ask yourself "am i sure it value will ascend?", If you doubt your instincts then don't do it.
c. Be ready for market fluctuation because crypto is highly volatile.
d. It is also suggested that one should have a specific strategy on how to approach the market.

This is an important factor to consider as a trader, having side gigs won't only keep the trader afloat, but also helps in keeping up with consistency.
I witnessed someone who deleted all his trading apps and relocated back to the rural settlement where he can cultivate crops, he starts to harvest after some months of hard work and back breaking labour in the farm, as soon as the income becomes steady, he resumed back to trading by reintroducing himself with the fundamental knowledge on crypto world, and it works out for him.
Side gigs does a lot in boosting trader's courage and courage as a trader is a key factor in your trading habit.

I wouldn't say that if i was you, Prediction of the future movement of any pair is proven to be science not pseudoscience; because it has the features of fundamental scientific approach, with all claims, this experts learn from observation, ask empirical question, and also they are many journals describing in details the method they used in their research. Prediction is not 100% right not because is not science, but because spairs" behaviour is determined by many external factors.

I think fear of losing money could also be one of the factors that destabilize investors, traders invest their funds without proper orientation or not bearing in mind that no investment on this earth is safe.
The fear of losing money will only make you loose more or it will stop you from taking a huge step in your trading life.
A trader should bare in mind to loose some money but applying proper risk management will help in staying longer in the market.

The war has negative impact on Nigeria's wheat supply value chain because Russia is one of the country's primary source of wheat.
Since the start of the war, price of flour has gone high because they is cut in supply of durum wheat.
Though, the government are set to increase their local domestic wheat production, but even so; the action will take some time before it began to yield positive outcome.
My take in this is that, countries should focus on boosting their local domestic production, unless if such resource
/materials isn't present in the locale.

I did leveraging some years back, i borrowed money to invest into crypto currency, ignoring the rules of "don't borrow money to invest"i lose all the money in the long run, that moment i realise that crypto is indeed "gambling".

If one should go into crypto currency without a side gigs, such trader will hit the bottom rock and will remain there for a long time.
From my basic knowledge about crypto currency, one needs to bare in mind the following factors before venturing into crypto currency:
1. Knowledge about crypto currency and it pairs behaviour
2. Funds, and lot of funds
3. Patient and
4. Risk management.

"Public perception" to me is the first determinant of bitcoin's behaviour, it is a strong factor that brings about Demand and supply because investors are influence by media blitz, crypto currency supporters, and predictions from experts.

In the foreign currency market, I recently experienced the BTC/USD volatility effect, which prompted me to investigate what makes the pair (bitcoin) so volatile.
Volatility is the evaluation of how much value of a financial asset fluctuate on a particular time.
Averagely, Bitcoin volatility ranges between 1.68%_4.54%, where Wednesday is the most volatile day compare to other days and Saturday which is the least volatile days.
The significance of volatility is that an asset is risky to own on any particular day, Its value could significantly increase or decrease.
There are a number of causes for bitcoin's historically erratic price behaviour. By knowing the elements that affect its market value one can choose if to invest in it, trade it, or keep following its advancements.
Bitcoin's price; just as other commodities, stocks, other products and assets rely upon supply and demand.
As it is an asset which traders and investors have swiftly adopted, its value is heavily influenced by opinion about price changes.
Investors concern are also influenced by media sources, influencers, industry titans with strong opinions, and popular cryptocurrency supporters, which causes price volatility.
Factors that create bitcoin volatility.
1. Demand and Supply
2. Investors' and user sentiment
3. Government regulation
4. Media blitz

• Bitcoin demand and supply
As much as any other aspect, demand and supply determine the pricing of the majority of asset. The quantity of coins in spread and the price at which individuals are prepared to pay have a significant impact on the value of bitcoin. The total quota of coins in the cryptocurrency is set at 21 million by design; when the circulating supply approaches this number, values are projected to increase.

• Bitcoin investors reaction
Since the quantity of bitcoin; the most popular cryptocurrency is getting more scarce, demand for it is rising.
• Government policy also influenced bitcoin volatility
• News/Media outlets
In the news, or media, we see different analysis from different “experts” predicting the future movement of Bitcoin, with that action, holders tend to hold more or even increase their shares.

Heyy mate, welcome to the forum, i am a newbie like you as you can see from my profile, i don't have much to say about the forum as i am still learning from the community members, but one thing i'll tell you is that, all you need to know about bitcoin is in this forum, take your time, learn slow and do self research, i assure you that your journey to bitcoin will be guided as they are many members who will be willing to impact on those that are ready to learn.

OP, chart is a wave of candlesticks movement, they are no many different types of chart, but they are about eleven(11) different chart pattern to aid a trader to determine or predict the future move a particular pair will make. So you need to elaborate more on what really you want to know about the chart.

Volatility is the proneness to change quickly and unpredictably.In simple terms, volatility refers to the price swing of assets. It evaluate the difference between the opening and closing prices over a certain period of time. Take for instance, a pair that is swinging between 2-20 pips is less volatile than a pair that swings between 30-100 pips.
What causes volatility are political, economic, wars and social events, as a trader, one should be aware of current events and keep up on global and financial news in order to make profit and to avoid unrealized losses

I knew about bitcoin a long time ago, and over the years i've witness how much people have elevated in standard through bitcoin investment, but i have been hesitant to join the trade because one needs another source of income/job in order to have an effective trades, not until last year when i decided to start a search for an in-depth knowledge about bitcoin pending when i'll invest into it.

In my opinion, the barriers that prevent many individuals from investing is lack of source of finance to maintain a consistent trading.
