It’s not a bad idea if universities choose to incorporate the study of Bitcoin into their curriculum but I’m not sure it’s really necessary to be taught in the university since one can still learn it outside the university or by even making research. Even without going to the university one can still have the knowledge of bitcoin and invest.

Most students won’t really pick interest in it though if they want to make it a general course for everybody. E.g having a law student study bitcoin as a course. The student won’t pick interest and may still not gain the knowledge about it cause it’s not in line with his or her course of study.
Even the lectures in schools today are more of elderly people and I’m not sure they are knowledgeable enough about bitcoin to be able to transfer that knowledge to students

Thank you very much for this point you just made, cause it will be helpful to some of us here that are new to the bitcoin world. The OP made mention of having money and patience, that’s a good one but without the crypto knowledge it will definitely be hard to strive through.

Same thing applies to when you want to get a product without having knowledge of how to use the product even when you have the money. You can buy the product and end up regretting why you bought it because you don’t know how it’s properly used or the product might tend not to last for the period it’s supposed to because it’s been misused.

So making research is necessary before investment.

We know the government is responsible but we are also to be blamed. Cause tell me why after we pass through all this hardship and bad government, during the next election because of little bribe, ethnicity and relationships, we still go ahead and vote for this same leaders we complained about their bad government. In the future we expect the economy to be a good one. It cannot, because we are also the cause of our problems.

It high time we realize that our wrong choices will not just affect us but also affect our children in the future. Same way the government is corrupt, is same way we have allowed corruption overwhelm us and at the end we only blame the government.

The Government is also to be blamed because most citizens vote this leaders base on their words during their campaign, thinking when they come on board the economy will become better but at the end they keep breaking their promises, making we citizens suffer

It is definitely true that the reason is because our educational system has failed us, with valid points you made mention. To add to what you said, our educational system before had discipline but now there is definitely no discipline compared to then. In our educational system before, teachers pay attentiveness to students but now they are nonchalant especially in our public schools, most of the teachers don’t go to class, they don’t care if the students are following up or not, they don’t care if they cover the curriculum or not, making students lack behind and dull.

There is actually no value for our certificate now, that’s why most persons prefer acquiring a skill that will earn them a living than going to school and at the end nothing.

School fees is increasing everyday including the public schools that were even free before for persons that could not afford going to private schools but now most people can’t afford school fees in public schools and the government is doing nothing about this. Nothing to motivate them in going to school anymore because of bad educational system.

Reasons why it like as if most people keep procrastinating or making excuses instead of investing in bitcoin is because they don’t really have the basic knowledge of what bitcoin is all about. They might just be hearing bitcoin Bitcoin from the crowd and wouldn’t want to invest their money because they feel maybe it’s like a Ponzi scheme or a even a scam since it has to do with online. A layman will actually think that cause they are scared of losing their money thinking if they invest their money is gone.

Another reason is because most people don’t actually like the long term investment, they want something that if they invest in, will start giving them profit immediately. They don’t have that patience to hold Bitcoin for years to start making profit.

Lastly, reason for much excuse instead of investing is because of no extra cash for investment. The little cash they earn is even hardly enough for feeding and also providing for oneself, so with that taught alone even though you want to invest, it wouldn’t be possible.

I don’t totally agree with you Mr Nathrixxx because the original post used a shop owner as a case study of how solutions can be provided so as to allow shop owners accept bitcoin.
In your quote, you said you don’t agree with the idea of business owners converting bitcoin to naira or stable coins to avoid volatility. So what do you expect a business owner to do when goods are been purchased from him in Bitcoin worth 1 million naira and when he wants to restock he founds out that the price of bitcoin has dipped, do you expect the business owner to start waiting until the price of bitcoin increases? That is not possible.

So I believe solutions should be created to avoid volatility in Bitcoin for business owners. It would be a great idea if payment are received in bitcoin and then converted to stable coin.

To me, the both of them are good asset for investment. In the sense that if you invest in land, when the land appreciates you can sell some portions and make good profits. Also bitcoin is a modern asset for investment and a digital one for that matter that is also doing very well in the asset class, it appreciates over time making it very good for investment.
Therefore, I won’t advise people against investing on land but invest more on bitcoin. since they are both good assets you can diversify on both of them, someone who has a large piece of land can sell some portions to invest on Bitcoin and when they make profit after holding for long term, they can sell some portions of the Bitcoin to buy another piece of land or lands.

I understand you very much brother, cause when product gets scarce the price tends to increase for sure. You made mention of how many investors hold bitcoin so as to be able to sell when bitcoin is no longer available for mining again. But with all the few suggestions/ answers that has been brought up here, I believe all the Bitcoin will be mined in 2140 which is about 100 plus years from now, and you said in your quote that investors know of how scarce Bitcoin will be by then that’s why they decided to hold their Bitcoin cause of that time. But the truth is that there is every possibility we will no longer be alive by then.

Since we would no longer be alive by then, why are we holding it?

Me personally watin inspire me join this Bitcoin forum na my brother and him friends. Everyday I Dey hear dem talk about bitcoin and post wey dem need to make, how dem get limited time to make post and how them give them merit for quality post. Sometimes I even Dey lost for watin dem Dey talk cos I no really understand how this Bitcoin network work but even as I Dey lost, I go still try to ask them little questions to get little idea.
So one day I say to myself why I no just join this community, atleast I know as newbie without the Bitcoin knowledge e go hard me at first, but because of the people wey surround me I say I go join. I wan write too, I wan make post too, I want make person acknowledge my write up as quality post too even thou e go hard. I wan learn, so with time from the different discussion here I go Dey get idea Dey grow small small. Right from time, I know say I no be good writer ooo, even when I bn Dey school I prefer calculation to anything reading or writing too much but I believe say this platform go help build me in writing, e go also help me Dey creative and build new ideas, make research and also get crypto knowledge cos I know say I Dey slack for this things wey I mention. So I Dey happy to Dey here.

To be honest, to me I prefer investing in Bitcoin than bank despite bank has its on advantages. Bitcoin does not need any central authority or government authority like the banks, you have control over your own Bitcoin account.

Most banks will not allow you withdraw everything in your account but in bitcoin you can.
Investing money in bank comes with so many issues, because most times when you make a transaction and the transaction declines, one will still get debited and then the whole reversal process becomes a stress. Either you will be going to the bank everyday until your money gets reversed or you will be given a particular period of days for reversal and even when the period is due, the money won’t be reversed until so many stress. Some banks won’t even refund your money, if you don’t make a complain after knowing it was due to their network glitch that you were debited.
So that’s why to avoid the whole bank wahala, I rather invest my money in Bitcoin.

Due to my research, I discovered that we have about 21 million BTC. 19.9 million BTC has already been mined, remaining 1.1 million BTC.
So, I want to know what will happen when the remaining 1.1 million BTC get mined.
Is it that there would be no bitcoin again for people to mine afterwards?
What will become of the future of bitcoin when the total 21 million BTC is completely mined?

It’s an honor to finally locate where I can relate with my country men I wish to express my joy because it’s been long I have been trying to register into the forum and after getting access it’s been difficult to navigate through the community but I believe this place will help me to do so.

Thank you so much. I will be doing that and I promise to follow the rules.

Good day everyone, I recently joined the forum and I'm still trying to understand so many things. I have been reading Lauda's introductory messages to newbies and I see that there are so many things I need to learn like how I shouldn't trust people and give out my details to anyone.

Please I still need guidelines to help me in my journey to have knowledge about Bitcoin, thanks everyone.
