Dey play where is the steady electricity to get this done? Many developers in Nigeria are hungry with their saggy low end laptop, poor network and you expect them to come out with good innovation. Let me ask you this question how many Nigerian developers teaching Nigerians tech skills are on YouTube creating videos on how to do programming?

Living in a country that can't provide 24 hrs steady power

I've been trying to break into the tech industry for a while now, focusing on frontend development. So far, the journey has been anything but easy. I managed to land an internship with a startup at some point, but it was short-lived due to financial challenges the company faced.

Every day, I scour LinkedIn and Nigerian job platforms, but tech jobs are scarce. Most openings I find were posted weeks ago, and for the few fresh ones, the number of applicants skyrockets almost immediately, making it nearly impossible to stand out.

Frustrated, I decided to explore foreign opportunities, especially remote roles. But that path seems even tougher—most employers prioritize candidates who are domiciled in their countries. The competition is simply on another level.

Now, as 2025 approaches, I find myself at a crossroads. I want to ask experienced tech professionals and those who've navigated similar struggles:

Is it worth pushing forward and improving my skills to stay in the frontend path?
Are there specific strategies or skills that can help me stand out in such a competitive space?
Or, should I consider pivoting to another field entirely?
Your insights would mean a lot to me. For those who've been in my shoes, how did you break through? What advice can you share for someone trying to find their footing in tech?

The only reason this doesn't feel like a bullrun is because of Altcoins.


If only all the altcoins I'm holding can break their ATH of previous cycle,than I would be fucking Rich.


Why does this cycle have to be different?

it's really disappointing... I'm starting to fear this altseason of a thing might not come this time around.

I don't think ALT season will come this time around

harry2sexy:
I hate to it it but that traditional method of trading is gone.

Now you're safer shorting the market, buying oversold coins on spots and following all these trending coins on dex screener, chaiiiii, see coins listing there every hour?

Where will new money come from to cause a bullrun?
You're right my brother. The conventional trading method of buying one coin holding on spot and sold when the price increases is all gone. Your money will just be plummeting. You can see how ALTs are doing in this cycle.
Na when i come understand trading, this kin thing come happen?

Abi na me be Jonah of crypto?

Why are we roaming around 95k-96k? Using the +16k Vs -7k theory, we're doing the right thing. , BTC is supposed to stop at 96k, but stubbornly went to 99.8k.

That is extra 3.8k just to build hopium for big men to have liquidity to sell and rest for a month or two. It has done it before this year, so it's not new.

From there, our next top should be 96k + 16k = 112k. But, the right thing to do to maintain a healthy market is to drop 7k at least 3 times.

Yes, we did drop exactly 7k from 99k down to 91k-92k. We need two or even 3 more 7k drops, else, the market is unhealthy.

If we drop 1 more from 92k, that'll be 85k. Another one will be 78k. The third one will lead us to 71k.


Based on what I replied someone earlier about not going below election price, you can see that the election day price was 69-70k. Hence, if we hit 71k, we maintained the election history.

As someone who has seen things in crypto from experience and from research, nothing, I repeat, NOTHING, is impossible.

When I started crypto, I used to hate people that keep talking about dump, dump, dump, but now that I'm wiser, I apologize to them. It was my desperation to blow that caused my hatred and anger. I ended up learning the hard way.

If that man or woman you trust so much and has vowed NEVER to hurt you could do it, why can't Bitcoin or any coin for that matter?

There are people who own the market. They are the same people that own the news. They could decide that BTC must come to 55k and it MUST. We can only cry and complain — we can't do anything.

I ed when YouTube changed its interface and everyone was upset. I even said I won't use the site again, but look at me today using it everyday.

So, calm down and learn while taking notes. Don't expect to blow in your first cycle, but win some and lose some, then learn what to do and what not to do in the next cycle.

Repost of my +16k Vs -7k theory which has been playing out perfectly this cycle.

How do you got all these information guy?? You are a wizard!!

Born2conquer:
Everybody wey advice me yesterday right, coins wey j sell don do 10% today. Lol

I buy e drop
I sell e rise.

Na when I sell BTC na that time e rise, na me be the Jonah wey dey hold Altcoin bullrun. As I don sell now e go pump.

If I buy BTC today, e go drop enter 20k

Go and learn technically analysis very well no just dey buy at any price you see on the chart

But he has never done killing all the igbos in southeast now. They should allow him to kill them finish since it is what they want.

Choose your team and if you don't mind, why do you prefer the team?

Guy I think you should be on X with all your Bitcoin good and smart analysis oooo where you will gain maximum engagement from people all over the world. This epic Bitcoin info should not be limited to nairaland alone

Reason for this is that a lot of Nigerian developers are majorly facing some barrier that is hinder them from productivity and development in their tech career which are:
Power shortage.
Bad network
Expensive data
Financial handicap.
Lack of motivation to push on
Developers in Nigeria who are experiencing these problems can not compete against their global counterpart

Message to everyone.

, there are 4 sets of people here

1. People who are experiencing their first bullrun and even with that, they haven't put much effort to read about history and most times, they believe history doest repeat itself, so they care less about it. Their emotion and intuition is all the feel they need.

2. People who are experiencing their first bullrun and they have put so much effort in learning about everything about crypto, its behavior and history from 2009 and they now how a big picture of the past and from it, project the future.

3. People who have experienced at least 1 bullrun before and witnessed how things moved, the pains, the joy, the greed, and the emotions involved and they've also read and relentlessly studied almost everything about crypto and its history for more than 4 years.

4. People who are number 3, but they haven't spent time learning much about history because they're always busy with work, school or other struggles of life or they just don't care about it because they see it as unnecessary.

The best person to listen to is yourself followed by number 3.

I my guy. I really appreciate your work on BTC historical movement. Please what would be the top in this Bullrun cycle?

Those Igbo shouting Biafra or never wouldn't say anything to this now oooo

What is it about being a graduate?

Don't mind some Nigerians like say if you're a University graduates you don become a millionaire be dat. Things and situation have really changed a lot now. This is not in the 70s and 60s anymore. Hunger and frustration will kill graduate who can't put down his or her ego to find any legal alternative to sort himself or herself in this harsh economy especially if you're from a poor struggle home. Make dem play dey go.

What are the tech facilities that they provided for tech remote workers before taxing them? Useless government

Usdtstaking:


No be small thing. They are quick to dip but hard to rise up again. As if it is not enough, the Exchange will still delist them. To make money in crypto is not easy. Too much brain power, patience and many a night you will be asking yourself "Why didn't I pull out" as if you are doing something in the other room and score an own goal.

Man must survive

The disadvantage is that you gat to have big capital with good technical analysis to trade BTC before you can see big profit. However, I like trading BTC

clems88:
that's my concern. Alts are not performing at all

It is safe to say person should be trading only BTC you see those Alts dey are rubbish. If BTC dey pump dey wouldn't pump but if BTC dump dey go dump BTC self. Me no dey trade dem again.

Crypto is a cycle....


Bearish months - Late APRIL, MAY, JUNE, SEPTEMBER.. Late DECEMBER.

BULLISH MONTHS-JULY, AUGUST, OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, JANUARY, FEBRUARY and MARCH.


You see OCTOBER.... Fear that month when it comes to bullrun

Angela90:
Save your money and keep only USDT for now. Bitcoin 50 -55k soon

I think the problem most crypto traders have is waiting. Having that patience to wait for your set up.

clems88:
I have lost faith in this year's bullrun with the way all coins are behaving . They are all very far from there last ATH
Just wish I can atleast get X5 of all my holdings make I just rest.

The hype don too much jaare.. We are in JUNE ALREADY BTC is still stuck between $70K to $67K

This is not Saudi Arabia where government makes everything soft for it's citizens oooo..

Southshore:


I mean, coming from nearly same level of economics, I seen many people who can do it.

Instead of laptop you can have a low end PC that will run UE5, not that expensive.
Graphix tablet need only for art, PC is enought for blueprints.

About electicty, do you have problem with it in Nigeria?
Do you have expensive data as well? Not chep good internet wifi?

I am talking from experience guy. No try 3D animation with low end laptop na frustration you go dey see or if you just want to play around not taking it serious. 3D animation is damn capital intensive.

          BTC CYCLE VERSION 2

Best BTC Cycle Simple Explanation For Every Cryptocurrency Lover

AFTER INTENSE RESEARCH from hundreds of sources and personal experiences while jotting things down with my shaky pen, I have concluded the following about BTC cycle.

0. 2009 - 2012 (Introduction/Launch)

1. 2012 - 2016 cycle. (After halving in Nov. 28th, 2012, the bottom for the season came 3 weeks or a month later at $12.4 before the real slow and gradual pump with some scary ups and downs volatility. In total, after halving, it took 11 months and a few weeks (approximately 1 year) to see the top — which is Nov. 2013 at $1,170, then a year later, it bottomed to bear market lowest of $171.50 in Dec. 2014 against Jan. 2015 (12 months interval + some weeks extra) — best buying opportunity for next bull run in 2 years ahead).

2. 2016 - 2020 cycle. (After halving in July 9th, 2016, the bottom for the season came 3 weeks or a month later at $535 before the real slow and gradual pump with some scary ups and downs volatility. In total, after halving, it took 1 year and 5 months to see the top — which is Dec. 2017 at $19,400, then a year later, it bottomed to bear market lowest of $3,156 on the 2nd week of Dec. 2018 (12 months interval) — best buying opportunity for next bull run in 2 years ahead).

3. 2020 - 2024 cycle. (After halving in May 11th, 2020, the bottom for the season came 3 weeks or a month later at $8,590 before the real slow and gradual pump with some scary ups and downs volatility. In total, after halving, it took 1 year and 6 months to see the top — which is Nov. 2021 at $69,600, then a year later, it bottomed to bear market lowest of $15,476 on the 3rd week of Dec. 2022 (12 months interval) — best buying opportunity for next bull run in 2 years ahead).

4. 2024 - 2028 cycle. (After halving in April 20th, 2024, the bottom for the season came 3 weeks (the day it went to $56k in May) or a month later before the real slow and gradual pump with some scary ups and downs volatility. In total, after halving, it will take 1 year and 7 months to see the top — which is Dec. 2025 and may be at $100k plus or minus, then a year later, it will bottom to bear market lowest of $47,000 or $37,000 on the 3rd week of Dec. 2026 against Jan. 2027 (12 months interval + extra weeks) — best buying opportunity for next bull run in 2 years ahead).

Now, let's discuss. Did you notice anything? Yes, the 1 month increment on the month it will top. This means, in each coming cycle, the day to witness the top increases by a month.

The funny thing is, BTC can change pattern when it wishes and opt for a shorter or even a longer period. For this unpredictability, let's have a +3 or -3 months buffer as our option 2 & 3.

This is to say, our

Option 1 is December, 2025 to see the top — 1 year & 7 months after halving.
Option 2 is October, 2025 (2-3 months early).
Option 3 is February, 2026 (2-3 months late).

So, in summary, BTC has a higher chance (if the pattern continues) of seeing its top in one of the above months.

Finally, here are there cheat codes to for the rest of your life.

Tip 1. After BTC bottoms, you get 18 months (1 year + 6 months) sideways movements to next halving.
Tip 2. After that halving, you get another 18 months (1 year and 6 months) of bullrun to hit the top.
Tip 3. After that top, you 12 months (1 year) ± 1 month, to hit the bottom. Now reread tip 1-3 and you'll see the loop.

Mathematically,

18 months of sideway + 18 months of halving to top + 12 months of top to bottom = 48 months.

Divide 48 by 4 (years of the cycle).

48/4 = 12 months.

Therefore, 48 months = the 4 year cycle. In the 48 Laws of Power, law 48 says, "Do not go past the mark you aimed for. In victory, know when to stop."

Use the above as a guide, but stop and observe if there is something new to the formula that has been giving others who have been using it for years uncanny victory.

Also, stop trying to make all the money in the world in one bullrun — learn to leave before greed takes over.

And when you leave, don't come back until it's the right time based on the knowledge contained here, else you MAY lose everything.

After you've left at the top of the market or close to it, but it keeps pumping and you know it's just a trap, then it's time to start a short trade with small leverage with at most, 3-5% of your money and 3-5% leverage. This particular advice is only for pros.

So, after the top, which takes 18 months ±, in most cases, start buying BTC by bit from the 11th month, 3 weeks to 12th month, 3 weeks.

For the alts, don't buy yet until BTC has spent at least, 12 months of its 18 months of sideways.

Even after that, there are some alts you still shouldn't buy (except a few Layer 1) until halving because any time BTC sneezes, they'll dump further.
               
The worst that'll happen to change the process is a lagging or overshoot of 2-3 months. When it settles, what's gonna be is gonna be — the pattern continues.

Even ETF didn't disrupt it, it only made it have a new ATH ahead of time, just  the same way COVID crash didn't disrupt the pattern — it only liquidated lots of short positions. A man/woman with this knowledge is ahead of most blind traders or HODLers.

Knowledge isn't power, but applied one is. Some people will read this and forget, but you that it for future reference and apply it will be ahead and more levelheaded.

Don't forget, since it will take 18 months after halving to hit the top, 6-12 months into it, there will be a huge crash of 30 - 50+% and most people will panic sell/run or short and the moment they do, 1-3 months later, the remaining 3 months (to make it 18 months) will see a parabolic pump to liquidate the shorters in an instant and the runners will jump back in when it's already at the top and they'll be used as exit liquidity by the big boys.

So, law 48, which says, "Do not go past the mark you aimed for. In victory, know when to stop."
