If bitcoin falls below $30k then it's a blessing in disguise to buy at least one of it and hodl we've seen such fall before in 2013 bitcoin was trading at $123 and toll up to  $1150 and after a few weeks it went down to $750 and hit all time low again in the beginning of the year 2015 when bitcoin touches the $313 mark, when bitcoin falls it brings so much hope...do not forget bitcoin jumped from $720 in March in 2017 to $20,000 in December 2017...bull market is about to start before the end of the year.

Me being dey think of December to next year (2022) February the market can be bullish, especially the week immediately after new year begins. But all-time-high no go dey attainable, but the market may be bullish at the time according to my analyzes which makes me have such speculation. What still dey fear me is if the price of bitcoin will decrease below $30000 before the next bull market will begin.

Omoh the resistance is too strong for the past one month e never really cross that $40,000 mark I just dey remember same thing happened in 2016 when fluctuate e been dey between $600 and $800 the resistance was too strong too.

This is just an opportunity to accumulate and hodl because I believe say the bull run go happen again that kind sept and Nov this year...

Yes, we have all agreed that any language in Nigeria can now fit into this thread. Also English can fit into this thread, I have ways I was posting it before, what is mostly related to Nigeria which can not fit to be on English boards are what I was posting in English here before I was attacked like what I was doing was wrong when I have my obvious genuine reasons. But now all has been clearly addressed which should not have gone far if we weren't mute about it before. To post here English contents is not the problem but we should not only focus on Pidgin is the matter, it will not be good if we see it the way posters here were seeing it before, we should focus on both. I did not just post in English if my posts are observed and I will like others to have this posting method as it will take us far.

Imo, Bitcoin no dey go anywhere for now. Resistance dey $40000, support dey $30000. If e continue like this while no positive news, the price fit decrease pass $30000. All-time-high has been attained until next having in 2024. Just my take on this be that, but it can be otherwise.

Brother, all dis talk no matter now If not e go belike, why we dey fight for the board na to get merit source so we fit exchange merit within ourselves for lost dem wey dey no go understand to observe us. All dis small small matta go come later, I no even dey understand why e dey become matta now. Like wetin we wey use another board or merit source do when we no get local board wey we fit use back our argument. When we get the board, we fight for merit source because technically we no get one.

I believe when time reach either we go write and submit or dem go ask us for wetin we want dem we give dem list after discussing, na dat time all this matta go come up. Make we no gree make e cause fractions between us now wey we never even achieve anything, distractions na bastard, e fit make u loose focus.

Onto another mata, how una dey see the market, wetin una dey predict. Bitcoin don try many times to break out but e no dey sure for am. Una tink say we dey enta bear or make we just give btc small time more.

PS: I'd be replying in English.

You have made a valid argument. I don't really know how the merit source selection works. In the time our community has been around, Pidgin and English have been widely used. That has been the status quo around here. Tbvh, I've seen people emphasize on pidgin being the main and probably - the only used language for expression.  For me, I ultimately believe everyone has a choice to make on which language to use for expressing themselves in this community. That said, I have no problem with anyone regardless of which language they use. That's the reason why I was asking if there's any reason why there should be dedicated threads for each language. Another point to note is that, there would be a split in community discussions since we might have different topics of discussion at the same times in these threads.

Like I said, I don't know how how the merit source selections work or how other sub boards operate. But if you feel this would be a great step for us all to take, then you have my backing. I'm down for whatever would take our community to the next level as I have a vested interest in seeing this community grow.

I'm happy we finally found one good solution, as we don agree so I like am e make sense to have all the languages here on the same thread, make we dey try dey bring topics wey go make sense for here.. I go make some of my translation in Yoruba and Igbo and sometimes Pidgin too. Any Nigerian wey no fight with us now when soup don done I no want see any body come dey collect glory ooo... I don talk my own finish

I will rest my case because of this. I am only following what is appropriate and that can help us. We should not have the mentality that English is not welcomed on this thread, even the OP post is completely or almost completely in English, we should welcome the two.

Everybody will like to be in Chipmixer, but not really the focus but a way we Nigerians can attain a local board, but it is not even a local board that matters to me now, but to discuss what will help we Nigerians. I may not even go for merit source if people are thinking it is because of myself and not seeing it the other way around.

I think this is getting resolved which has not been addressed before but now, in no condition should anyone that post in English here should be attacked while Pidgin also is greatly accepted. I like this idea. @Igehhh, you also make sense, thanks for the support, let us have all here on this thread if both English and Pidgin are accepted (what do you think?), I will try my best to also bring good topics on altcoins here. @Mpamaegbu, me no get issue o, and all are bygones, I was even surprised you tagged me positive after the whole thing was going on, let us just build this thread together rather than complaining about English contents.

And this is exactly why Nigeria no dey become better make we no dey decieve yourself. Everybody get e own personal agenda which is why we're finding it difficult to achieve something unique. Everything great take times, no think say you over sabi or you want to carry all the glory and go do things yourself. If the community no support you na wasting of time e be.

We don leave reason we create thread they discussion unnecessary things and the worst part we dey do am for language oyinbo go understand. Now imagine Theymos they observe this thread and come dey see all this things. Make I tell una something, this industry all that matters is the community, when you have the community you can achieve it all. If na chipmixer oh, merit source oh or moderator wey una dey find abi genuine interest in helping the community first thing first we need the local board, let's achieve that.

No need to dey create different thread or language, bring all the discussion or language here. You fit speak in tongues, Igbo, pidgin, english etc. All board discussion welcomed. When we get the local boards then we can start creating threads or board for different purpose, with their languages. End of discussion, now lets discuss something more lucrative.

I am having over 1200 merits already, is this selfish interest? I do not think so. It is for the interest of young people that are coming by having more merit sources in our community here. It is about us having more good posters which can be a reflection of merit sources the community is having. I am the second fastest growing member that registered in 2020 and I do not need to be a merit source to get goings and if you people think it will not help Nigerians here, and what makes you think I will be the next merit source? It can be anyone that qualifies for it in the local community, best if it is competitive. Being a merit source will not help me as my account is well established even that I thought it could be, I will say thanks to God for that. Although, I am kind of being psychological and having a local board or more merit sources is not for me but for us. Kind of psychological because it will be good to prove how good we are than hiding ourselves. So, why think it is selfishness?

A very good point. Diversifying will help, activities we need most.

Charles if this is why you want us to create the English board then I think we have a different perspective on the English board, I'm a straight forward person I be your friend but if you want to use the creation of the English board for your own selfish interest or anything opposite our vision here then I'll withdraw my support. Na only greedy man dey fck dey suck breast at the same time. Our vision here na to get local board anything merit source now is secondary, our Oga BRAINBOSS is a merit source not because we have a local board, if you want to be a merit source straighten up and apply on Meta there is no shame in trying.. My vision on why the English should be created is for the non- pidgin speaking Nigerians to feel at home too and to make a quality post more easier to compose. Hope you get

Nice one.

Did you read this: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.57255308

This is Bitcointalk, not just a simple forum to be compared with.

I think the question should be 'if there is English thread, will Pidgin thread be affected? Not the other way around.

If there is an active member requesting for such, I think it should not be a problem because the member wants to contribute in English on this forum which will go us far if others also support it. I still do not get why denying ourselves of the English everyone can speak and write?

Is Indian a native English country? Why should only Pidgin be here? Just a genuine reason? Other languages are on translators, I even saw Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa on translators, where is Pidgin? If Pidgin is not on any translator, if you want to apply for another merit source, who will read it translate it when it can not be translated. We need a language that can be used to examine us by others on this forum for support and mind convincing. And not that Pidgin board will be left inactive, it will still be active.

First off, I wan apologize to my brothers for my inactivity here for over a week plus. Yes, I no dey sick and I still dey alive. Only thing be say one lengthy strike my school people embark on, them just call am off so like this, things dey rush hour mode. But I dey round up now so I go actively participate in discussions here moving forward.


Is it necessary to have a dedicated English thread that's different from the pidgin thread?


Anybody wey watch the recent interview of Mr President on Arise TV go agree with me say the president no get any good agenda or plans to eradicate the problems we dey face for our country today - Corruption, Insecurity, debts. Instead of solving them, him just dey blame the past government. E no make sense to me.

Waiting me think about English board na because say we Naija dey speak both English and Pidgin generally, and English get strength o. If we create this thread, you go see more development with waiting I think. Even, the Pidgin thread go still dey active, and we go still dey post well well for Pidgin thread. I just dey see this as a form of diversification. E go make sense if na you even create the English board.

Me support the suggestion, all me want na for us to diverse small especially as per English board. All the boards (the three) go still dey count dey go towards having local board in which all will also still be allowed.

Make we leave setinment apart say our country is not doing well in terms of good governance but when it come to crypto nobody for Africa come near, we dey even contest with USA right now for almost all the crypto sites and forum, we are leading on Paxful, Binance and Localbitcal p2p right now, so how is this not achievement? The CEO is doing nothing than pushing us to do more and changing the narrative of people about Nigerians with his social media platforms, El Salvador legalised the use of bitcoin in the country now ask yourself, how many El Salvador citizens are crypto inclined? Not much compared to Nigeria who has large crypto community. Make we try talk good about our great Nation.

I understand your point but wetin Charles suggest too still make sense I fought this idea of his for many weeks now una dey aware but at some point I sit down come reason am, then I realised having an English board is not a bad idea as long as say the thread go dey very active because we have some Nigerians here who cannot speak or write Pidgin and they are eager to join us. If Theymos want to give us local board him go put the two thread in one, also having Altcoin Discussions thread too nobe bad idea.

My suggestion

Nigeria Local Board (Pidgin
Nigeria Local Board ( English)
Nigeria Altcoin Discussion. (Pidgin/Eng)

E no dey bad to get these board endorsed and created by Brainboss to show unity.

Just a suggestion....

Although d man dey yamh major truth still I no dey believe any of the CEO when it comes to business talk. We fit feel say dat guy dey reason our mata but all e dey after na their profit. You know how much dem dey make from service fees and other benefits.

Nigeria don help dat company well well so I understand why all the good good talk dey come from but make our head no too big, we never achieve anything for this country when Bitcoin adoption na the topic for ground. The government go still they fight us and to achieve am go hard.

Make the man no use all the clout chasing they degrade within El Salvador do. Abeg make we give shout out to their government because na dem dem do something, nobi all those nonsense we dey hear.

For the other discussion, first we never achieve one first wey be local board we don dey reason merit source already belike una never see as other local board dey fight for mata theymos self no dey reason dem. No rush oh or everything we go miss. First achieve one and when one is achieve others go follow.

Theymos only give board with languages and e no care if e fit understand am or not provided we get community like e strong welle nothing else mata. When we achieve the board, other languages fit come enta. You think say they give India local board to speak english?. Me self I no be local board source, I Know as I carry get am when I still be Snr member and other applications was rejected ever OG's. Theymos no get time, the guy dey lead majorly on cruise. If you see opportunity you seize am nobi to dey tell am wetin to do if not you dey waste your time.

Waiting I think about this is that they will be planning to help their citizens understand lightning network, also I believe say if their citizens understand what Bitcoin is, some will be making use of other cryptocurrencies which can make their transaction fast with low fee. About the lightning network, it is possible for a transaction fee of $0.00005 after a channel is opened already, with a transaction speed of less than 5 seconds or lesser. I see this as a means El Salvador will adopt the use of lightning network along.

Make we try encourage others so we fit have it asap. I dey certain say e go help us. Me go dey active for the two threads, e go make sense if others also just as that.

This bitcoin transactions go cause issue with retailers and customers, imagine buying food of $10 at McDonald and your bitcoin transfer gas is $5 to make it faster because anything lesser fit make transaction last for hours meanwhile you don chop food... I hope they are working on fast mining process for quick confirmation of payments

I'm convinced

Asides the merit factor, Nigerians have been an obvious spotlight for cryptocurrency in the last 1 year, trading a large volume especially bitcoin and other top coins. At the moment they dont have a solid project on top coinmarketcap with high traded volume and fundamentals. I believe many had made enough fund to drive any project to the top and to prove our credibility in cryptocurrency. Lets give the space a surprise with a project

I think I have tried my best to convince many Nigerians on this forum that are active here with obvious reasons why we need an English local thread, but yet my opinion was not considered. I am still insisting just because I love Nigerians and I want us a local board which I believe you people do not know the criteria needed for the progress we need on this forum. The reasons I had shared with some of us which I do not want it to be public here on this forum, but yet I still have other valid reasons I am proposing English thread.

We know how it is very difficult for members to become a merit source recently, and we Nigerians have only one for now, even you can see people that are worth it but not given merit source. Only local board is what we can use to have another merit source easily and successfully. We need 10 posts to apply for merit source, and if you need a merit source in a local board or thread, the thread must be active in a way the person that apply for merit source will need some of the posts in the local thread or board. If admin can not read Pidgin, then what is the evidence we will be given another merit source?

I do not know the reason we can not have an English thread, it will be active, also Pidgin thread will be active, but I do not know the genuine reason you people want only Pidgin board when Indian thread is in English without no moderator. I will like you to realize early how only Pidgin thread will not help you people. Pidgin no dey translators, it should be an alternative to English thread.
