Filecoin (FIL) Losing Investors’ Interest as Avalanche (AVAX) and TMS Network (TMSN) Take on a Bullish Trend

The crypto market is full of contradictory trends. While Filecoin (FIL) is struggling, Avalanche (AVAX) is ready to resist, and TMS Network (TMSN) is all set for another price hike very soon.

TMS Network (TMSN) Is Growing Exponentially During the Presale

Filecoin (FIL) Is Consolidating and Losing Investors’ Interest

Filecoin (FIL) has been fluctuating between $5.3 and $5.9 since March 20th, in sync with the changes in BTC’s price pattern. Analysts say that Filecoin’s (FIL) RSI (Relative Strength Index) is an indication of limited buying pressure. The development activity of Filecoin (FIL) declined in mid-March, and is yet to pick up. It appears that investors are less confident of Filecoin’s (FIL) growth at this point. However, some analysts say that Filecoin (FIL) investors will hold out longer in the hope to target a higher boundary and increase gains. Experts predict that Filecoin (FIL) can still take on a bullish trend if it successfully breaks through the resistance level at $5.800. The last seven days haven’t been great for Filecoin (FIL). Though Filecoin (FIL) went close to $5.80 thrice, it also fell toward $5.35. On 6th April, Filecoin (FIL) was hovering around the $5.55 mark after losing 3.45% in 24 hours.

Avalanche (AVAX) Gaining a Strong Upward Movement

Avalanche (AVAX) has been trying to bounce back in the last three weeks. Despite a couple of dips, Avalanche (AVAX) managed to maintain a green graph since 17th March. Furthermore, Avalanche (AVAX) managed to cross the $18 mark for a brief time at the start of April. This is important as $18 is marked as the resistance level for Avalanche (AVAX) token. If Avalanche (AVAX) can successfully breach the resistance in the coming days, it will strengthen the bullish trend. If the selling pressure continues, Avalanche (AVAX) is more likely to stay between $18, and consolidate its position. However, if Avalanche (AVAX) breaks through resistance, it can gain 10% and touch $19.6. Of course, the reverse will mean a crash for Avalanche (AVAX), though it doesn’t seem possible at this point. Avalanche (AVAX) is around $17.82, at the time of writing this article.

Nigerian Social Media Space Agog As UberFacts, Daily Loud Publish Tinubu’s Drug Case

UberFacts, a fact-publishing online outlet with a globally reach, on Monday, tweeted about the drug-trafficking case of Nigeria’s president-elect Bola Tinubu, sparking global trend of the issue on Twitter that All Progressive Congress (APC) media camp are scrambling to find the right response to.

The tweet, which has now been viewed by more than 14 million people across the globe, has put the matter on a global scale – adding to the series of controversies surrounding Tinubu – and putting question mark on the legitimacy of his election victory.

“In 1993, Bola Ahmed Tinubu surrendered $460,000 to the US government after a Chicago court found the income came from heroin trafficking,” UberFacts tweeted.

Last year, Nigerian investigative journalist David Hundeyin wrote a report detailing how the APC chieftain and two-term governor of Lagos State was involved in drug trafficking while residing in Chicago. Per the report entitled: “Bola Ahmed Tinubu: From Drug Lord To Presidential Candidate,” Tinubu was forced to forfeit $460,000 to the US government following a court order on January 10, 1992, obtained by the authorities to freeze some of his bank accounts containing the suspected proceeds of heroin trafficking in excess of $1,400,000.

Hours after UberFacts made the post, another Twitter handle, Daily Loud, known for publishing viral news, tweeted the same story with a link to its Instagram page for details.

“In 1993, Bola Ahmed Tinubu surrendered $460,000 to the U.S. government after a Chicago court found the income came from packing and shipping heroin,” it wrote.

While Tinubu has repeatedly denied any involvement in heroin trafficking, documents have continuously emerged to support the allegation – mostly from courts. Late last year, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois released certified documents of the case.

It was based on available court documents that both UberFacts and Daily Loud made their tweets, which have been translated in over 15 languages so far, including Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba.

The issue of Tinubu’s drug trafficking is part of the charges brought before the Presidential Election Tribunal Court by the Labour Party’s presidential candidate Peter Obi, the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar and others, challenging the outcome of the February 25 election.

The applicants are praying the Tribunal to disqualify Tinubu given his involvement in heroin deals, which contravenes Nigeria’s law and makes him illegible to contest the presidential election.

While the APC media team has maintained unusual silence as the tweets spread like wildfire, the party’s presidential campaign spokesperson, Festus Keyamo, claimed that UberFacts was paid to make the tweet.

“We have all been laughing our heads off since yesterday! Some desperados went to pay the owner of a Twitter handle to attempt to verify facts that are before our Supreme Court to decide upon. Twitter is now the overall Supreme Court for some people. Chai! Illiteracy & ignorance!,” he tweeted on Monday.

UberFacts said it “wasn’t paid to post that, in cash, kernel or otherwise,” making reference to the source of court documents it shared to back up the tweet.

Besides outcry that the election, which saw Nigeria’s electoral commission declare Tinubu president-elect was overly flawed, Nigerians who have been pushing his drug-trafficking records for the rest of the world to see are worried that having someone of his repute as a president will cause further harm to the battered image of the country.

“The Uberfact publication of Tinubu’s indictment and forfeiture of drug related funds in the US is an indelible stain on our international image. I feel ashamed. The public office should be above reproach. The character and moral authority of POTFRON shouldn’t attract such dirt,” Owo Ayodeji tweeted.

Global PC Shipments Declined by 29% in The First Quarter of 2023

The International Data Corporation (IDC) worldwide quarterly personal computer advice tracker reports that global PC shipments declined by 29% in the first quarter of 2023. The decline followed a 28.1% drop in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Reports reveal that shipments of personal computers plunged in the first quarter due to weak demand, excess inventory, and concerns about macroeconomic conditions.

IDC disclosed that the drop brought shipments in line with levels last seen before demand soared during the pandemic, as lockdowns led employees and students to upgrade their machines for remote work and school. The decline in sales signaled the end of Covid driven era as regards remote work.

The giant tech company is reported to have recorded the biggest shipment drops during the first quarter of 2023, as its numbers were down 40.5 percent from the same period a year ago. In February, Apple reported that sales of its Mac computers which had boomed during the wave of working from home during the pandemic, declined by 29 percent year-on-year to $7.7 billion in their most recent quarter.

Also, tech company, Lenovo shipped the most PC in the last quarter followed by Dell, as they recorded drops of more than 30 percent, while HP was down 24.2 percent, leaving no major brand spared from the decline.

The IDC disclosed that the pause in growth and demand is giving the supply chain some room to make changes as many factories begin to explore production options outside China. It also stated that PC makers are also rejigging their plans for the remainder of the year and have begun to pull in orders for Chromebooks due to an expected increase in licensing costs later this year.

Meanwhile, the research manager for IDC’s mobility and consumed device trackers Jitesh Ubrani, disclosed  that channel inventory for PCs is still above the healthy four to the six-week range, and even with heavy discounting, inventory is expected to remain elevated through mid-year and potentially into the third quarter of this year as well.

In the near term, the IDC predicts that PC shipments are likely to suffer while growth is expected after 2023, citing improvement in the global economy and possibly from consumers who are considering upgrading to Windows 11.

Also, analysts at IDC expect that by 2024, an aging install base will start coming for refresh. They state that if the economy is trending upward by then, there should be a significant market upside as consumers look to refresh, schools seek to replace worn-down Chromebooks and businesses move to Windows 11.

Concerns over slowdowns in major economies remain with recent tumult in the banking sector worsening worries that runway inflation and tight monetary policy would hamper growth and financial investments.

Worldwide personal computer shipments fell 29% year-over-year in the first quarter, as a pandemic-era sales surge lost pace and the economic outlook grew increasingly uncertain. A new report from market research firm IDC shows that Apple has been hit particularly hard, with Mac shipments slumping 40.5% in the first three months of the year. A Bloomberg Intelligence analyst said Apple’s PC unit is particularly exposed to a tougher consumer market as well as comparisons to last year’s robust sales.

Lenovo and Dell saw shipments drop by more than 30% while HP registered a 24% fall. IDC says an improving economy and the replacement of aging PCs could lead to a market rebound in 2024. (LinkedIn News)

On the Representation of Youths as “Folk Devils” in Nigeria’s Changing Political Landscape

By

Stanley Cohen coined the term “Folk Devils” in 1972 from his PhD research on mods and rockers, two youth groups with deviant behaviours in the United States of America. Cohen contended that when the media reports on deviant behaviour, it creates a narrative with a clear villain: the folk devil. People with deviant behaviors, he and subsequent scholars argue, cannot be classified as threats to society and individuals unless moral entrepreneurs play critical roles. Moral entrepreneurs believe that deviance and crime should not be allowed to flourish. As a result, they must be identified and labelled.

Moral entrepreneurs must agree that a great concern exists. They must also agree that their resources must be used to tame the actors’ wings, or “the devils.” The second stage of realising the description and labelling is to have a media system that taps into moral entrepreneurs’ concerns. In this regard, reporters, editors, and other media practitioners will seek out entrepreneurs for interviews while also developing their own information materials about the deviants in order to reinforce the concerns.

Cohen and others developed the idea of understanding people through sociological perspectives. However, over the years, the concept has been used in many academic fields and applied in industries as well as sectors that have an interest in understanding youth cultures. For instance, participants and actors in many social and political movements in the global south and north have been seen as threats to established social and political institutions due to their approaches for actualizing desired goals and results, which many have termed antithetical to constitutional authorities and means of silencing opposing views.

Nigeria experienced various social and political movements between 2015 and 2019, as one of the countries where youths believe that old political leaders should allow the younger generation to take over political leadership. The need for political leadership was heightened in 2020 during the ENDSARS protests, in which youths demanded the cancellation of the Nigeria Police’s Special Anti-Robbery Squad. According to a number of sources, the protesters were initially invisible, and the protests in major cities were unstructured. Throughout the protests, moral entrepreneurs from the mainstream media to the new media called public attention to some of the destructive activities of the protesting youth.

As the country’s 2023 general elections draw closer, according to some social and public affairs analysts, the ENDSARS movement seems to find political solace in the Labour Party, which presents Mr. Peter Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, as its presidential candidate. For the youth who believe in the political change, the party was seen as a better alternative to the All-Progressives Congress, the ruling party, and the People’s Democratic Party, the erstwhile ruling party. Our analyst notes that for the first time in the history of political party formation and participation in general elections, Mr. Peter Obi’s party throws many surprises to ‘the experienced political parties’ with the winning of some parliament seats at the state and federal levels, including a governorship seat in the South East region.

Since the Labour Party and Mr. Peter Obi were seen as the best options by the youths, our analyst had earlier noted that the party and the former governor leveraged the support and had algorithmic campaign activities. In the course of executing the activities, in some cases, the youths did not hesitate to silence anyone who opposed their brands (LP and Mr. Peter Obi). This is not surprising because it is part of political campaigns throughout the world. However, seeing people who supported other political parties and candidates as outcasts and not ready for the needed political change were the key issues that pitted them against moral entrepreneurs on different media platforms. This situation continued after the presidential election.

In order to fulfil one of the premises of moral panic, the views of Professor Wole Soyinka on a private television station were further reinforced by other mainstream media platforms, while the virality of the views was ensured through Twitter, Facebook, and other social networking sites available to Nigerian digital citizens. Now, the bone of contention between the Nobel laureate and the youths was the use of fascism to describe their agitation for reclaiming Mr. Peter Obi’s alleged ‘stolen mandate’. Many other moral entrepreneurs, such as the candidate of the Young Progressives Party in the 2019 presidential election, Kingsley Moghalu, have also tolled Professor Soyinka’s path, blaming the youth, especially supporters of the LP, and Mr. Peter Obi for creating tension across the country ahead of the May 29 inauguration of the president-elect, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

As Nigeria awaits the inauguration, how long will moral entrepreneurs regard the youths as “folk devils” as international communities keep an eye on the country?
