Get involved today

[Yucky]

Getting involved, both in the political, economic, social aspect in your country even if you don't venture into all these sectors fully, having basic knowledge about what's going on is important. Listening to news or checking social media updates on this sector is important.

Someone in Africa might be like, 'I don't live in the United States of America, so their election is not my business.' But have you thought of the fact that your African country and these American countries indulge in trade? And your country's currency can be devalued by the exchange in the market.

When a country's currency is devalued, it means you have to earn more to afford certain things. Your country imports and exports to other people by the time there's a crisis in the neighbour trade country, people will be displaced, thinking only about safety me not trade at that moment.

So, if your country doesn't have a business partner to trade with, where do you think the revenue from international trade will come from? This factor impacts your country's economy, these things affect you directly as indirectly as an entrepreneur or a citizen.

And for the tech workers who feel like they have no business offline, if there's crisis in the international  country where you freelance and offer your skills and services, your clients would not actively be online. They would be trying to save their heads, It's only when a country is moving freely and peacefully, and trade is going on, that they'll recognize you as a techie if not you won't see an online market for your skills.
 

I kept seeing United States presidential election updates on a lot of my friends' status. A lot of  Bitcoin and crypto traders were onto it  because they support Trump who supports crypto. Because restricting laws can be put on the croup market by a government that doesn't support it and it will affect the price in the market which will affect you a Bitcoin holder, no matter your country.

So, we need to learn how to get involved in various sectors in our country. Don't be politically apathetic, when it's time to vote, go out there and exercise your right and protect your interest because no one else will. Learn to read news, get basic information, and however you can contribute to a sector, go ahead and contribute. It's an international collective effort for a better life.

Do you think events happening in another country should be your concern?

First of all, this topic should be moved to "politics and society"
It's okay to keep up with world politics but it should be just for knowledged or whatever because if you're not a citizen of that country there's nothing you can do in the decision-making process.
So what if the United States and my country have trade relations? What power do I have to do anything about the election?
I can just keep up with the election to know whats going on, but it's just to stay updated.

I find it funny when I hear people say "they don't vote". It's a very dumb thing to say but somehow they think it's cool. How are you involve in making a decision that directly affects your life? Thats your right and you have to make use of it r else you'll suffer for it.
The only time I can excuse non voters is when all the candidates are just bad to an extent that none of them should be considered.

While US elections shape trade and economic policies that can have indirect consequences for Africa, African nations themselves increasingly drive world markets in everything from technology to energy. Economies on the continent are becoming important trading partners for countries around the world, including the United States, and shifts in these economies will reverberate through global supply chains, from mineral resources to tech hubs.

With the rise of cryptocurrency and digital markets, African countries are more connected than ever. The decision of a US administration to take one side or another in crypto regulation may move global markets, but African nations are moving forward-with countries like Nigeria and Kenya leading in crypto adoption. That momentum makes Africa a driver of digital economic trends to which other countries, at times regardless of US policy shifts, are paying attention.

I agree with all of that. We don't need to be fully involved but let us at least keep ourselves updated with everything that is happening in the world. I kept track of that US presidential election because I know the USA is one of the powerhouse countries in the world and whoever is voted for president can affect a lot of things including currencies and cryptocurrencies. Just like what is happening today.
Up until now, there are still many Trump haters and I can see America divided one more time but I am still optimistic that it will be fixed somewhere while Trump is seated.

Anyway, I like how you put all things that way. It's definitely a must-read for everyone because we cannot be stagnant. There are those who believe in traditions but let's also see the other side of the coin. Who knows, we might learn something great.

I guess being in this community, we also have to be updated on what is going on around the world and not just Bitcoin. And with that, I will say that I was also exposed with the geo-politics and the financial world because of this forum.

As for the result of the US election, there will always be haters no matter what country we live it and who is the current political personalities sitting in the office. But I guess for the sake of the country, Trump will have to make policies that will benefit more of the Americans.

Yes, when it is such a strong country, if the people there vote for someone, they will choose him and whoever becomes the president there will surely improve it. As Bitcoin has undervalued itself over the past few days, Trump has promised to change that. But how much truth is there is no idea till now I have seen many people who made such promises but nothing changed. Bitcoin will definitely come though as this election has caused its value to drop because if it doesn't happen, many companies have invested money relying on it.  If they cannot benefit them, they will protest against it. I expect the same from him because no one can run America better than him. Because Trump has worked hard in this country even though people don't like what he's doing.

Opportunities can come from anywhere including business opportunities that can change economic situation this is why it is important to stay informed both with the current situation in your country and the situation happening in other countries that you know are huge world players in determining how world economy can go. You can be able to position yourself from the information you get into doing a business or acquiring a skill that you have through information discovered will be valuable.

Human beings are sometimes defined as social animals, so one of the things that makes you a human being is the ability for you to know things that are happening around your immediate environment and things that is happening around the globe, so you can be updated with latest Happenings.  Hence your socially exposed, it will help you take decisions as an informed person and not as an irrational person. Getting involved physically with the politics of your country might be too demanding for some persons, as they won't want to be to political exposed because of security reasons, because politics can be very dirty sometimes, you could see how many times they tried to assassinate the President Elect of the United States of America, so some persons prefer to remain apolitical but with firm information and understanding about what is happening around, which is still very much better for me, instead of remaining aloof.

I am a woman and I have never taken for granted the importance of being involved in the voting system of my country, this is because I understand that even if I am immune to the consequences of a bad government, my unborn children as well as those who cannot yet vote can suffer for it, and that is something that I think I can avoid if I join those who are determined to vote in the right candidates to see a better country. If everyone has this mindset about the importance of voting and being involved in the affairs of their country, there will surely be progress.

People who think like that are very short sighted. The politics in the US affects everybody across the globe. Whether you are a US citizen or not doesn't matter. You should be interested in the US politics and support whichever side that benefits you the most. Express your opinions in youtube comments, in forums, in your real life friend groups... Why? Because the outcome of the election in the US affects you directly. It certainly affects the crypto prices and if you are a crypto holder it automatically affects you also.

Bitcoin made a new ATH right after the US election and the markets liked the outcome. That means people who supported Trump made the right decision.

[Solosanz]

Who cares with politic, I don't care with that, I vote based on my feeling. It's better for me to use the time to learn something new or make more money than talk about poltiic.

It doesn't mean I encourage or invite people to be like me because it will ruin the entire country, imagine everyone don't give a fuck with the election, this will make dictator happily.

That's why when I see my friends or people in social medias are debating with politic, I let them to debate.

[WillyAp]

Well as an immigrant I won't.
a.) I'm not in the US,
b.) the country I reside in does not like dissent.

You get thrown in jail for having the wrong messages on Whatspapp.

Almost all the governments of other countries are interested in the elections of the US. The US has the biggest economy and the strongest military.   
Presidents have started lobbying to have a good relationship with the president-elect. I am interested in the US politics just because of Bitcoin. I don't bother about any other thing because I don't have control over them, but I just read about them for educational purposes.

So, we need to learn how to get involved in various sectors in our country. Don't be politically apathetic, when it's time to vote, go out there and exercise your right and protect your interest because no one else will. Learn to read news, get basic information, and however you can contribute to a sector, go ahead and contribute. It's an international collective effort for a better life.

It is important to be aware of the economic and political conditions of your country. My best hobby is reading news both local and international. But I don't have confidence in the electoral process of my country, so I have stopped voting. Voting is a waste of time when the election will still be rigged.   

Do you think events happening in another country should be your concern?

It is okay to know what is going on in the world. It might help you to make good decisions in business, family, and life in general. But it shouldn't stress you because you don't have control over them.

Everything is about to be updated because everything is rooted which causes many issues. I think the worth of all we do is connected to Bitcoin. If it decreases, the price of other commodities increases, including the mineral gold.Recently, due to its low price, the price of petrol had increased.  Who has played a big role in this elections. Yes definitely not liked everywhere he has promised that this time I will take this country to the top and develop it more and make it happen by working hard in Bitcoin.  Now, how much truth is in it, it will be proved only after it is made but I consider the destruction of many countries due to its creation.
