No one is forcing you to be a land owner. It's your decision. Just because a government has the power to take your private property for public use, it doesn't make it a bad idea to own land, an apartment, or a house. Those things happen in other countries as well, not just Nigeria. A distant relative of mine lost his house because they built a highway in its vicinity. A concrete pillar was built in its location. He was properly compensated, though, and purchased a better home for that money and in a better location.

We just have to accept that while Bitcoin is one of the best investments someone could get for themselves, the other opportunities out there too are equally good and when it’s done within the context of the law, you would always get your investments worth come what may. No one is just going to reap you all in the name of the government.

The fact that this distant relative of yours was able to get a good home in a good location too, that’s to say he’s previous home and location worked out well for him as a real estate project.

Well, I want to believe that you are not from Nigeria and possibly have not heard so much about this country, I am proud of the country I come from but I must say that Nigeria isn't a country that is free from corruption, it is not a country that I can rate as a developed country, alot of things still operates like we are still in 1940 but I trust we are coming gradually..

Land disputes is very common here especially in the rural and fasting developing areas and parts of the country, OP was right when he said he choose peace cus as a land investor in this country, you must have muscle to face land disputes and battles, you must have resources and backing, backing are of different types and the more you have, the better..
Making money is not easy here I don't know about other countries, I am a type of person that don't run away from problems, I face it, fight it and defeat it, what i just have to make sure is that I am fighting a just course, like I said before, I invest in anything I am sure I will make money from, bitcoin, land, gold, where ever I see opportunity..
Of course I am not from Nigeria, that is why I was wondering about the statement that you have made. As I said, with a central registry 99% of land disputes go away. That is why countries have started doing it that way quite some time ago. Once you have a good registry, it itself is mostly free from corruption because it would be hard to make any changes without several layers of corruption. Even then, the original owners have paperwork or proof that would make the corruption go up in flames. It is unfortunate that nobody is working on solving this for you guys since you have many issues of this type as you said. These are the kind of issues that your politicians should be working on. I can only imagine what nonsense they are talking about in their public campaigns and what they are working on? It seems to me that politicians in most countries are doing all sorts of things, except solving the things that need actual solving or that could be solved relatively fast.

No one is forcing you to be a land owner. It's your decision. Just because a government has the power to take your private property for public use, it doesn't make it a bad idea to own land, an apartment, or a house. Those things happen in other countries as well, not just Nigeria. A distant relative of mine lost his house because they built a highway in its vicinity. A concrete pillar was built in its location. He was properly compensated, though, and purchased a better home for that money and in a better location.
Talk about a biased answer. If the miners, developers, or some other entities had the power to take away your Bitcoin from you, that wouldn't make it a bad idea to own Bitcoin?  Roll Eyes Whether things can be confiscated from you, and how, is one of the primary determining metrics of whether some investment is worthwhile. If US stocks could be confiscated easily and through corruption, as is land in these cases, the whole stock market would collapse within days -- so yes, it is one of the primary determinants when it comes to investment.

We just have to accept that while Bitcoin is one of the best investments someone could get for themselves, the other opportunities out there too are equally good and when it’s done within the context of the law, you would always get your investments worth come what may. No one is just going to reap you all in the name of the government.
Bitcoin is more about sovereignty and freedom than it is about traditional investing. This is why people who, misguidedly focus on how much they can profit in terms of fiat, miss out on Bitcoin.

At some point, your decision is right. However, we can't be certain with bitcoin that it'll be here 30-50 years from now, or it could vanish like thin air. Bitcoin is a good investment, but I don't think you will just focus on it forever. You need to diversify your investments so that if bitcoin is suddenly gone, you will still have other sources of income that will generate profits for you.

Land is a good investment, but as you've said not in your country. So invest in other investments or businesses except land so that not only you will get rich from bitcoin, but even in offline investments you will also start to accumulate wealth.

OP, as a man, you don't need to be a coward. You should be brave and know that people or the government will step on your toes but you should be strong and don't become weak and lose hope because if many great people today tell you their stories of how they were bullied by the government when they were trying to grow their businesses and investments then you will see what happened to you and your family as just a tip of the iceberg.

If you have large amount of money buy lands in different locations because land is a valuable asset that the price never depreciates except you own the land in a swampy or underdeveloped area that is when the value may decrease. Of course, lands generally belongs to the government and even if you get all the legal documents they still have the right to develop on that land if they want to embark on a project that will benefit the masses but a compensation is supposed to follow so that area is what i don't know why your family wasn't compensated. I have also seen people who refused compensation from the federal government so i hope that your family didn't do same thing of not agreeing to a compensation.

Let us tell ourselves the truth, we cannot invest in ONLY bitcoins, we need some real life valuable investments too to back up and alternate our investment in bitcoins.

Land is still a good investment. The risk of the government seizing the land is real, but it doesn't happen often or to most people. Moreover, even if they do this, you will receive a compensation which can be used to acquire another portion of land, or any other investments you have in mind, including Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is too risky and volatile to keep all your funds into. It's actually much more risky than having a property seized by the government. Diversification is always the best to do.

Yet your advice stated that after one received a compensation they can either use it to buy another land or Bitcoin, and you later said that Bitcoin is too risky and volatile to keep all your funds into, you could have said that some money should go into another land and have some Bitcoin still just in case.

All I can say is, it is always a dream to group of people who haven't witnessed corruption or violence before, they can even ask if corruption or violence really exists, if you aren't a victim yourself you will think that others are saying nonsense. OP gave two solid options though, Gold and Bitcoin, not just Bitcoin, true ownership is why he or she must have put it that way.

Where I am from, the dangers in having lands is far greater than anything else, you own it everyone knows, pray so hard that those who knows are not evil, one day you are ok and the next you are admitted in a hospital with no traces of what's really wrong with your body, lands ownerships is another battlefield.

Many, I repeat, many have lost their lives because of lands..
