Experts Back Big Eyes To Offset Ravencoin And Cardano As Favorite Crypto

0

Since blockchain technology and cryptocurrency debuted on the world scene, many crypto launches have ushered cryptocurrencies that emerged as favorites for holders and traders. Today, we have Big Eyes (BIG).

Big Eyes (BIG) is a new cryptocurrency project built on the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain. It seeks to build a massive community to dominate the cryptocurrency market charts.

This article explores how Big Eyes (BIG) stands against perennial crypto heavyweights Cardano (ADA) and Ravencoin (RVN).

Cardano — The Next-Generation Blockchain

When network congestions and overcrowded servers plagued several blockchains, many users immediately sought a blockchain solution for quicker transaction processing and lower gas costs.

Launched in 2017, Cardano (ADA) addressed this issue with its hybrid protocol and innovative blockchain model, quickly rising to the top of users’ preferences in the cryptocurrency market.

Cardano’s setup allowed for quicker transactions and a less congested network. The blockchain has two layers: a settlement layer for compiling and “settling” wallets and ledgers and a computation layer for carrying out user transactions.

The Cardano (ADA) network deployed  Ouroboros, a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus protocol, ensuring energy efficiency in processing and storing transactions. As a result, the platform runs faster and charges lower transaction fees.

This insures Cardano’s top 10 crypto rank, as the network holds a market cap of over $12 billion at the time of writing, the 8th largest in the cryptocurrency market.

Ravencoin — Encouraging Blockchain Adoption

Ravencoin (RVN) was launched as a Bitcoin (BTC) fork in 2018 to make it easy for anyone to create and transact digital assets decentralized, thanks to its peer-to-peer blockchain.

As a result, cryptocurrency holders have total control over their funds and are independent of other institutions.

Ravencoin’s native token is RVN. It operates on the Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism and secures the crypto platform.

It uses an RVN wallet known as MangoFarmAssets, with a tokenized version available on the BSC, which can be used for borrowing, lending, and trading on a decentralized finance (DeFi) application.

One of the distinctive value propositions of Ravencoin (RVN) is that it can be mined with comparatively fewer mining requirements, enabling people to mine Ravencoin (RVN) tokens using desktop and laptop computers.

Big Eyes — New Meme Coin

Big Eyes (BIG) is a new memecoin with huge prospects and garnering a massive following. Its fast-selling pre-sale is already in stage five, generating over $8.5 million so far. However, Big Eyes (BIG) isn’t only community hype and pre-sale.

Big Eyes’ (BIG) developers plan to establish an NFT marketplace, Sushi Crew. The NFT marketplace will offer NFTs minted by the developers for sale and allow users to mint and manage theirs on the crypto platform.

NFT transactions will be free of charge, a move by the developers to eliminate high transaction fees associated with the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain.

Big Eyes Coin (BIG) is also concerned about protecting the environment, especially the oceans. The developers have created a wallet with 5% of the initial token supply and will use that wallet to make recurring donations to several charities that work to save marine life in the ocean.

The Big Eyes (BIG) community can also look forward to the project’s release of its ERC-20 token, BIG, on major DEXs, which will help it gain more traction with a wider audience. The initial launch with Uniswap (UNI) will significantly boost BIG’s price.

Cardano (ADA) and Ravencoin (RVN) have undoubtedly established themselves as top cryptocurrencies. However, the recent crypto collapse has impacted them significantly.

As a result, experts began seeking better alternatives, particularly newer cryptocurrencies like Big Eyes (BIG). Experts believe that with its clear roadmap, Big Eyes (BIG) can reach the top, offsetting Cardano (ADA) and Ravencoin (RVN) in the process.

With an ongoing pre-sale, Here’s your chance to join the next big cryptocurrency favorite as its pre-sale nears completion.

2023 General Elections: NEDG Discloses Plans for Presidential Debate

0

As the 2023 presidential elections is only less than five months away, many Nigerian electorates still look forward to a jaw contest among the various presidential aspirants. At every electioneering period, it is customary to have manifesto-driven debates to enable aspirants to openly address issues they intend to solve if voted into power, and to enable electorates to determine their preferred candidates or parties.

In light of the foregoing, the Nigeria Elections Debate Group (NEDG) has announced its readiness to kickstart its presidential debate by mid November this year towards the 2023 presidential and general elections. The debate according to NEDG will provide a fair and equal platform to various party candidates to present a comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of their economic policies and agenda to the Nigerian electorates.

Addressing Journalists at a joint news conference with the organising partners in Abuja the Executive Secretary of NEDG, Dr Eddie Emessiri noted that the initiative is geared towards ensuring that Nigerians are better informed on the economic and political policies of the presidential candidates and take informed decisions as they go to polls in February 2023. According to him:

“It is against the preceding that the participants of the Presidential debate are expected to share their insights on how Nigeria can sustainably grow its economy while addressing core issues in the following areas: Macroeconomic environment and indicators.”

Mr Emesseri said candidates that would feature in the debate would be selected from the outcome of the ongoing opinion poll which is already open to the public. According to him, due to financial and time constraint, the NEDG will limit the number of presidential candidates to the four most popular ones based on the poll results.

The NEDG Executive Secretary also disclosed that the results of the opinion poll would be made known early next month and the debate would follow almost immediately.

“The final list with the names of selected candidates and the methodology for the selection process will be announced on Nov. 8, a week before the first debate,” he said.

“This year’s debate will be taken closer to the people beginning from Abuja and subsequently to Port Harcourt, Lagos and Kano” Emessiri said, adding that the debates would be broadcast by all Federal government and state government-owned Radio and Television stations.

Emessiri expressed optimism that such debates would enable the electorate make informed decisions at the polls that would evolve leaders that would positively transform the country in the interest of all. He also assured the candidates of a fair platform for engagement, saying that all stakeholders will be duly carried along.

The organising partners include the Broadcasting organisations of Nigeria, the Nigeria Economic Summit Group, the Nigeria Union of journalists, and the guild of editors, among others.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the NEDG is a coalition of broadcast organisations, civil society organisations and professional groups, who are committed to the deepening of democracy in Nigeria.
The NEDG is also committed to entrenching an enduring democratic culture through organised television debates since the return to democratic rule in Nigeria in 1999.

As NFT Fades, Building Business Models for Fetching Water, Not Firewood

1

In the Igbo Nation, when a person dreams of going to fetch water, that person is dreaming of life, and plenty, because the road to the stream is never covered by weeds since in seasons and out of seasons, humans need water. But when someone dreams of fetching firewood, it is a bad dream since the road to fetch firewood is always abandoned when the firewood has been harvested!

That takes me to the business of NFT (non fungible tokens) which exploded recently. You buy a virtual dog, a virtual meat, a virtual school, a virtual river, etc – and you feel happy.

Not sure about that happiness. What is happening is that you have excess money and are just entertaining yourself as you spend it. But when the cheap money is out, we can see the dance steps clearer.

People, the NFT market is dying: “OpenSea, the world’s largest nonfungible token (NFT) marketplace, has witnessed a substantial drop in its daily trading volumes. Data from DappRadar revealed that the marketplace processed nearly $5 million worth of NFT transactions on August 28, approximately 99% lower than its record high of $405.75 million on the 1st of May.”

In other words, OpenSea trading volume plunged by 99% in just weeks, and that is to say that there are many ephemeral business models in this world. Your model must focus on how to get to the stream to fetch water and not going to the farm for firewood!

Is it a crime for a woman to collect money from a man with the promise of visiting him but failed to fulfill the promise?

A netizen called out a lady during the week. The gist was that he met the girl on TikTok and they started bonding together, they decided to meet in person and get to know each other better, but unfortunately, they live in different cities, so the girl asked the guy to book a flight for her or send her transport fare so she could come and see him. The guy booked the flight for the lady only for the lady to reroute the flight to another destination and ghosted the guy. 

The guy said he has been calling the girl to refund him the flight money since it became obvious that the girl does not want to come and see him but the girl refused to reply to his messages. The guy is threatening legal action against the girl, he boasted that if the girl didn’t refund him the flight money in 24hours he will make sure that the girl rots in jail. 

The legal issue here is; is the action of the girl asking the guy to book a flight for her or to send her transport fare to come and see him only to ghost the guy a criminal offense? 

In section 418/419 of the criminal code, it is provided that obtaining money or property of another by false pretense or fake promise is a crime punishable with at least seven years imprisonment term. 

On this note, the guy can file a petition against the lady for obtaining from him under false pretense and fake promise that she will come and see him BUT in another section of the criminal code, specifically, S.223(2), it is a criminal offense for a man to pay or send money to a woman money for sex. It is called procurement. 

This section provides thus; S.223(2) Any person who procures a woman or girl to become a common prostitute either in Nigeria or elsewhere is guilty of a misdemeanor and is liable to imprisonment for two years.

On this note, the lady can argue in her defense that the man sent her money to visit him for sex thereby committing the crime of procurement. Maybe the man can as well argue that he was just inviting the lady out on a date and not for sex hence have not committed the crime of procurement by booking a flight for the lady. 

Both of them have a case and whoever presents a more solid argument wins.
