Meme Coins / Re: Started by two whales who know how to HODL
« on: April 30, 2024, 09:38:00 PM »
At this point, I have to say that 99.9 percent of all Solana based meme coins have become nothing but absolute nonsense, developers seem to have all run out of ideas on what funny names to call their new meme coins which is created for no other intention other than to scam people.

I love meme coins, but right now, Ive resolved to not buy new Solana meme coins anymore, but rather hold the quality ones I've bought previously, I have lost a good sum of money trying to buy into the next billion dollar market cap meme coin while it's still at $10,000 market cap, I am tired of trying and right now, I am happy to return back to investing in only quality projects.

Bitcoin Forum / Re: The 134th reason why you should not use Wasabi Wallet.
« on: April 30, 2024, 09:28:29 AM »
Thank you very much NotATether..
++ for I consider this a very vital information passed to this community here, I need not say that I am very familiar with Wasabi wallet, I was one of their signature ad participants way back then when they first began promoting their service on bitcointalk, and like you said, they were considered as one of the best bitcoin wallet for the bitcoin community.
And I also knew when the whole about them blacklisting UTXOs started, it's a thing the community on bitcointalk frowned at, but like every persons who ran a centralized service, it was hard for them to turn back, which means that they will ultimately lose the power of control, or being in charge, just exactly the same type fear the government have if they allow crypto to dominate over fiat.

Wasabi wallet coming out now to shut off US users proves one thing, and that is that they are centralized, and I believe this should act as a proof to all that have defended Wasabi all this years, I stopped using this wallet a long time ago by the way, I will advice users here who value their privacy and anonymity to also adhere to this advice.

However, this anonymity has its downsides, it's easy to get scammed. Additionally, there are legal concerns, especially regarding taxation. Some countries are even reducing anonymity to prevent tax evasion. What do you think is a good balance between maintaining privacy and reducing potential misuse in the crypto space?
If we are to talk about the physical world where we all live, I would not see anonymity as such a good thing because just like you said, people can easily get scammed, a person can easily impersonate another person, commit a crime and disappear, and the person who was impersonated will be arrested, prosecuted for a crime he or she knows nothing about, this and many more are the disadvantages of anonymity in the physical world, and I would say that they are too enormous, that is, the disadvantage outweighs the advantage, so, anonymity in the physical world is not advised.

But coming back to online and to crypto in particular, anonymity is a very good thing,  keeping your true identity a secret helps prevent other online users from using your personal details for illegal activities, I've seen some persons download other people profile pics from platforms like Facebook, x, and use the Pic as their own profile Pic in their account, using that same account to scam other online users.
So, keeping your identity hidden online is a good thing I personally would encourage, and about scam, it's our individual responsibility to ensure our online safety, trust no one and trust no offer, no matter how good it appears to be.

Cryptocurrency discussions / Re: What tokens are trending?

Guys let's talk about trending tokens. Recently , many tokens are thriving and have made their investors some good gains.
which ones are currently trending, and is it too late to invest in them?
Well, I have not read other people's comment on this to know what their contributions to this is, but personally, and based on my experience, investing in trending tokens doesn't or does not guarantee profit, in fact, it is actually risky to invest in tokens when they are trending, and this is because at this time, there is the chances that the price has gone up, and for the price of that coin or token to continue to go up, it depends on the utility and or community behind such project.

So, in the nutshell and to cut it all short, it is better to find coins or tokens and invest in them before they trend, so that when it gets to that stage where other people have discovered that coin or token, you are in a better position to decide whether to sell/take profit, or just keep holdling because you believe that the price of that coin or token will do way better in the future.

Cryptocurrency discussions / Is there still going to be a bull run?
« on: April 30, 2024, 12:41:34 AM »
"hi bud, is there still going to be a bull run this year?"

😂 Noob question yeah!, but thats what a dude asked me this evening, he's a newbie though, he joined crypto late January this year (2024), I wasnt the one who introduced crypto to him, but he approached me one time in February, and I assisted him on buying his first bitcoin, and since then, he's been investing on his own.

But I was surprised when he asked me if there was still going to be a bull run this year, I paused for a while cus I didn't know what to answer him, I've never discussed anything concerning or patterning to bull run with him before, so I was a kind of puzzled when he asked me that.

Later on, I simply told him I don't know, that I can't predict the market, but then, I could notice he wasn't satisfied with that answer, he probably expected me to say "yes", as a way for him to reassure himself of his expections, but then again, I couldn't lie to him.

I am as well putting out the same question out here for the  community, is there still going to be a bull run this year? Or should we just pack our bags and go home? 😬😁

If you are a fast learner, then you can get some pdf or read books that would increase your understanding about what Bitcoin mixing really entails and the mechanism that the work done without any issue or problem.
If you want to use a mixer like Unijoin, then you do not have to go that far. It is not rocket science, and the mixing process is easy, even for a newbie, all they need is to create a new BTC address to receive mixed coins and set the delay time. Once you deposit the coins, the mixer will handle the rest.

It is entirely unnecessary for him to learn the technical operations of Bitcoin and, by extension, the Blockchain, just to enable him to use coin mixing services like Unijoin.

In my opinion, as long as you have been in the crypto space and have ever transferred and/or transacted Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency for that matter, then you can easily use coin mixing services.

However, if he is suggesting to read up on Blockchain and Bitcoin, then he is probably inferring that coin mixing services like Unijoin are difficult to use and practically unsafe unless, of course, who he is replying to is interested in understanding the underlying technology the coin mixing service is built upon, and in that regard, it makes sense to refer him to a technical document not on Bitcoin but on the mixing service itself.
You are completely right and I 100 precent agree with you, it is just like being a driver, one does not have any need to understand how a car engine functions to drive the car, you just simply learn how to drive, which consists of turning the steering as it should, while shifting gears as it should (for manual drive), for automatic drive, one doesn't even have to shift gears or have to know anything  on how the gearbox works, they just enter a car and drive.

Same exactly as you have explained it, using a mixing service only needs the user to know how to send and recieve crypto, that all, there is absolutely no need going into reading the  technical aspect of how bitcoin functions or so, doing this may likely create confusion in the mind of the user, who may likely see it all as very difficult to understand, where as it's something that is very easy.

Cryptocurrency discussions / Re: Have you got any personal experience with crypto loans?

Quote from: XFinite on April 27, 2024, 02:51:48 PM

Does anyone have experience with crypto loans? Are there platforms known for having better terms and lower interest rates? ;D
Well, I have no experience with crypto loans, but I am actually a user of several platforms where crypto loans are one of the services they offer, and what I have to say about this is that, different platforms have their different rules, criterias that must be meet and as well as requirements, and most Importantly, the collateral is what matters, for sometimes, the interest rate is always very friendly if you ask me, but being able to provide the type of collateral the platform request for is mostly the hardest part of getting crypto loans.

But again, I think you should also reconsider what you said about saving up to solve your issues instead of taking a loan, this is actually very good if you can discipline yourself well to abide by this, nothing is good as having no loan repayment schedule bugging your mind, most especially when you are not able to meet up.

@cryptofied
Good post mate. But I have used some or few Bitcoin mixers and there are notable differences in them, so what are those similarities or differences that unijoin mixer has that makes it stands out or fall short when being compared to other exchange.

Right not I can still say the Bitcoin transaction fee is still high so any mixer that has additional high fees to this should be out of the list of options. How fast is the transaction on unijoin Bitcoin mixer.
Speaking of fees, I mixed some bitcoins on Unijoin some few days ago when the sats per vbyte was around 45 sats, and I for a pretty good result, atleast, I was very happy with the output for I expected a bit less due to the high bitcoin transactions fees.
Currently, the sats per vbyte is at around 25 sats, and this means that the bitcoin transactions fees have greatly reduced compared to what it was at at the beginning of the week, this means that, if you are mixing now, fees shouldn't really be a thing to worry about, most especially, if you choose Unijoin.

And speaking of how fast it is to transaction on Unijoin, I would rate my first and second experience a 9 out of 10, while mixing, you see a time at which you wish to receive your mixed coins, both times I mixed, my mixed bitcoins arrived to my wallet at the exact time I set, not even a 2 second late.

Nigerian Languages / Re: When Binance returns, will you return back?

Quote from: Rruchi man on April 19, 2024, 09:10:13 PM
Some sanctions and policies do not always stay the same for long, they can change while a government is still in power, or when they pass power on to a new government. I think that Binance will be back to Nigeria, and when they come back, how willing do you think Nigerians who are into cryptocurrency will be to return back to them for exchange services?
Binance is a big exchange, regardless say the failed to fight for their Nigerian customers, and the worst of them is CZ, CZ is a very good man to the global cryptocurrency market as a whole, but then, he has failed his Nigerian users multiple times, I guess the nigga is like me wey no dey like to chuk mouth to wetin I believe say e no concern me, but all the same, it's bad that he never made any supportive comments as regards to his Nigerian customers in times when people expected him to atleast say something, like for example, during the end Sars protest, even Elon musk showed support for the Nigerian youths, but CZ never made any comment regarding the matter, seems hes just after making money from Nigerians and that's all.

If Binance definitely returns back to nigeria, I believe some Nigerians will return back to the exchange to continue trading, while some will remain where they are currently, but for me, the only reason why I will possibly return back to Binance is if I get a better deal there, else, I will just remain where I am currently, which is okx and remitano.

The thing is no one exactly knows how long the campaign they plan to transfer would be running. Some really do prefer to find a higher-paying campaign due to their own reasons. Personally, I don't do this as I also want to be part of a long-term campaign.

But yes, that's also a hassle for campaign managers to find a replacement participant for the campaign as they need to filter all the applying participants and find the best fit for the position.

Finding the participant to fill the open slot will not be a big task for the manager since people will be ready to rain applications even if it's one free slots and who says no to money. ;)

You are right and I completely agree with you, from my personally observations, for the campaign managers to find a replacement for a user or some users who left the campaign and created open slot(s) isn't always that much of a hassle compared to when the campaign starts newly and the manager have to select the best participants for the campaign, I personally believe that to fill an or open slots, the manager already knows who and who to accept their application even before he or she declares the campaign open to accepting new applicant(s).

Quote

But some members may tend to have it as habit of switching one from another and if they accepted this week and participant decided to switch in the next week may create bad impression and will not likely to be accepted in the future.
Well, also very correct, some users have that habit of shifting from one campaign to another which most of the time is either..
1. For a higher paying campaign.
2. Or for a campaign where they find the campaign requirement more comfortable and convinient for them.
3. Or just for fun.

As in number 3, some users switch between campaigns just for fun, but participants only do this when there is an abundance of campaigns with open slots on the forum, not when the forum is running shot of campaigns with open slots.

Thank you for this observation, i am not an admin or a moderator, but i don't think it is bad if such announcements are made in that board, maybe it covers absolutely everything about meme coins and tokens. There has to be a lot of such announcements in that board for the admin to think about creating a child board for memecoin announcement.
Well, you possibly are right though that there has to be a lot of new meme coin announcements on that main board before the admin will consider creating a seperate sub-board for it, no arguments (whatsoever) about that, but then, at the current state of the board, I don't know about any other user but personally, I feel participating in discussions on that board has become overly less interesting due to the type of thread users are creating on the board.

But then again, let me believe that from now on, the admin and the mods are watching the board and will definitely find a fix to all the spams happening there.

       Since chrome browser was the default browser for my pc, (well, let me just say that i use chrome for majorly all my browsing needs and wants), but while trying to access the Unijoin website, I encountered an issue which forced me to switch to another immediate available browser on my pc, and that is Opera. And the issue encountered was that for some reasons beyond my comprehension, i could not get past the very first page of the site, which is the human verification stage.

~

I could not get past this page of the site on my chrome browser, as each time i clicked the "verify you are human" box, the box ticks a good mark, then forms some circle rotating like its loading, then abruptly returns back to its previous/normal state, requiring me to click the box again, this i did over and over and over again, but the same thing kept happening, and later on, i had to try from another browser, (opera), and just one click, the verification was passed - Please fix this issue.

I also use the Chrome browser almost all the time, and I just visited the Unijoin site and passed the captcha without any problems. So, something is wrong on your side exactly with your Chrome browser and not on the site's side.
I would recommend you try either clearing your browser cache and cookies directly for the Unijoin site or using incognito mode. Also, if you have extensions installed in your Chrome browser, the reason for the captcha loop may be in one of them.
p.s.
You can also check for errors in the console when the captcha is looping.
OK, thank you very much for this heads up, since you tried and didn't experience the same thing, I am believing it's an issue from my end as you said, it also occurred to me right now to tried the same in my mobile chrome, I just did now and the verification was passed one time, so, I am assuming the issue is with my pc's chrome software..

And yeah, I do have some, about 8 to 10 extensions installed on mumy pc chrome browser, I will follow the steps as you have recommended to see if the issue will be fixed, I actually thought the issue was from the UniJoin side because I do not experience the same thing when visiting other websites, only Unijoin, but all the same, I will try what you have suggested and see if that fixes the issue.

Quote from: BitHunter on April 25, 2024, 03:20:18 PM
Just some few years ago, crypto was a fringe niche that people barely noticed but the growth of the community has been really remarkable. Innovations like spending crypto is something I see as long overdue coz the hassle of swapping and P2P can sometimes feel unnecessary... Like all those times the P2P merchant delays the payment and your heart beats just a little faster until the funds get to your account and ready for spending...

Recently I came across a crypto card by BlackCard and it got me thinking of possibilities. The biggest take away for me was it's offering of up to 13% CashBack. While I'm exited with cashbacks like this my skeptism is if you always need to spend before you get benefits? Nevertheless though, are there similar cards like these?
Well, there are alot of crypto cards at the moment through which people can easily spend their crypto any where in the world without having to first convert it to fiat and withdraw to your bank account.
There are alot of services I know currently that are providing such services, but me person havent bought or tried any of those crypto cards, because I feel like I don't need any of it just yet, having a crypto card at your disposal simply means that you may like no longer be able to keep your crypto investments without the temptation of wanting to spend some part of it, and again, taxes and fees charged on every transaction from a crypto card are most of the time x5 higher than what you spend as fees when you choose to convert your crypto to fiat and withdraw to your account for spending, so, in the end, what you earn as a cashback doesn't really matter, for the cashback is simply a tiny part of the fees the card service providers took from you and give you so as to keep you glued to them while they keep milking you.

I personally, will still prefer to go through the p2p route until crypto cards become very common that there is a big competition between them on which will charge the lowest in fees.

Contrary to what you are asking @op, but possibly has something or some links to what you are talking about 😊
And it's that, this is the second time I am coming across this name and token (Maneki) today, I've never heard of this token or project before, but under 1 hour of coming online today, I've read two people talk about it..
First, I read about it on this This tweet from some one I respect so much.
Second, you (@op) mentioned same token on this thread, maybe this is a good sign/the universe way of telling me to invest in this token, I am confused 😕 right now 😭.

What do do?
