it is true that the we still trade crypto currencies, but is it really legal?
And what I really mean by this "legal" is does the government really support crypto , no they don't .

Greetings my fellow country people, I just wan talk about this issue because na one of the questions wey I dun dey ask my sef , I dun dey reason am tey tey .
Although people the talk positively about am , them dey say e go bring about development and all that .
But wetin dey bother me naa how we go fit take avoid the negative aspects, because normally anything wey get advantage follow get disadvantage and plus this our country wey b like this so wey be say people and corruption be like 5&6 .
If we legalize this thing e fit help us oo , e fit help us well well, e fit bring about foreign investments e fit create jobs for people..
E fit stimulate our economic growth. The list plenty but make we Sha talk of the disadvantage wey e fit cos l, ike
Money laundering,
Inequality : Bitcoin fit the benefit people wey they technically savvy, people wey get money to invest and Nigeria wey I know all of this fit still resolve to corruption..
So my country people how una see this matter?

Sometimes na mis information, on the other hand e fit be greed. But the way our country dun dey now nobody wan carefully understand something before them jump into that thing. So long as say Dem hear say person benefit from something them dey ready to do that thing even if them no know how to do that thing.

I really do not like the idea of people seeing Bitcoin as some form of get rich quick scheme or something like that. Everyone is just willing to invest in Bitcoin without having proper knowledge of what it is they are doing.
Bitcoin should be known for it's qualities such as
Durability, decentralized, divisibility,and portability..
How it could be used to better the society, and lessen corruption from our Elites.
It shouldn't be seen as some get rich quick scheme or so.

Well it's the same in my country, we distribute Electricity to different countries whereas due to corruption from our Elites our dear country Is failing.
The question of if Bitcoin can really set a corrupt country free.
Maybe yes or maybe No
Bitcoin is develop in such a way that all transactions are traceable, public and permanently stored in the Bitcoin network so it surely would reduce the level of corruption in a country such as yours .
But nevertheless your still cannot change the corrupt nature of man.

Well, how disrupted??
I've never heard of such, so I don't think it's something to worry about.

But any ways if it really does get disrupted then there's a possibility it could affect BTC! Because literally almost anything revolves round the internet.

Biden’s withdrawal and endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidency introduced some volatility to markets.

While the Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, has incorporated a pro-Bitcoin stance into his election platform, Harris’s stance on cryptocurrencies remains unclear.

Market intelligence firm sentiment noted that the market appears to react with an “immediate small panic drop in crypto prices” to news of Joe Biden’s stepping aside, as it did with the news of the Trump assassination.

As Bitcoin’s adoption has grown over the years, more people have likely begun wondering how Bitcoin works. Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency that operates on its own blockchain (the Bitcoin blockchain) secured and run by a vast global network of participants. It is a borderless asset that can be traded and transacted fractionally. Safeguarded by its open-source code, Bitcoin’s 21 million maximum coin supply makes the asset scarce and deflationary, unlike the U.S. dollar.

Often valued in a pair with the U.S. dollar, the Bitcoin price USD value has increased massively over the years. BTC owners can store Bitcoin themselves and transact it globally, void of any limitations on hours of operation. BTC has also gained a significant amount of mainstream attention over time, likely due to public support from celebrities such as Elon Musk and adoption from companies such as PayPal.

I saw this on "cointelegraph this morning and decided to share with the forum.

This development follows the successful launch of the CSOP Bitcoin Futures ETF (3066.HK) in December 2022, continuing the firm’s expansion in the Asia-Pacific region.

This inverse product achieves this through a futures-based replication strategy, which invests directly into spot-month Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Bitcoin Futures.
According to a CSOP company post on July 22, the product is set to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) with a listing price of approximately 7.8 Hong Kong dollars (HKD) per unit.

The world's bitcoin users reach 420 million. The population of the United States is about 334 million and bitcoin users in America appear to be more than 93 million. This means that Trump carries almost 35% of the votes of the American population. But indeed, political conditions are always interesting and cruel. There is always a way when people need support to get a position. But this condition is quite interesting and beneficial for us because we can take advantage of its votality. Not expecting much from political promises. But I see Trump has felt the gains in crypto, I'm sure he'll continue to carry the Crypto name. Although I am not sure he can keep all his promises.

But like you said, we sure can take advantage of it's volatility.

this is really sick.
Of course I really can't wait too.

A second Trump administration has expressed intentions to support innovation and create a more accommodating environment for the crypto industry. It should certainly defend the rights of Bitcoin miners, self-custodians, and people wishing to transact freely.

 But, if a second Trump administration truly wants to champion innovation and “end Democrats’ unlawful and unAmerican Crypto crackdown,” it must also commit to defending the rights of the people building the tools that allow all of these things to happen.

ok thanks, I will next time.

The cryptocurrency market has experienced considerable turbulence over the past few months. Despite a recent upturn, the market capitalization is still down 14% from its peak in March.

According to a Binance Research report, June saw a “brutal” 11.4% total market capitalization downturn coinciding with the recent German government Bitcoin (BTC) sell-off.

If this reports are to be believed.
Then this comes as a surprise to we gamers , cause this was previously unheard of in previous version of auto games.

Now if you're a gamer like I am , how do you see this sudden move from GTA ?
Would it contribute immensely to the crypto space?.

We cross our fingers 🤞..
And expect the best.

What happened?
As stated by former us president, Donald trump "He believes That Digital currencies need to be made in the USA, in order to counter China's growing influence.
He shifts align with a border strategy to position the US as a leader in Emerging technologies.

Donald trump Is really drawing support from the crypto community , with some seeing this as some form of charade..
And others as a kind of light at the tunnel..
But whatever the case, we will keep showing our support for trump.
We believe trump's administration may give hope to cryptoprenuers🌚

Well, due to its volatile nature..
Your interest shouldn't really be fixed keenly on it's price..

The absence of middlemen in btc exch for me is where my interest is really tied to.
