Last month we processed $1.2M in USDT↔️cNGN on @rwaassetchain DEX. This month: $2M . Next month—how much? $20M? $50M? 👀 Drop your guess & bookmark this. I’ll give 100,000 cNGN to the 2 closest answers. More liquidity is coming so you can execute much larger trades. 🚀 Swap USDT to cNGN on the DEX here: swap.assetchain.org/ Check out all the stats here: app.assetchain.org//?code=ko…

Total EBITDA of all Elon Musk companies is $20bn yet the combined market cap is almost $4tr. Financial engineering at its absolute finest.

Microsoft gave 12,000 engineers Claude Code they loved it then the bill came up to $2,000 per person a month so they took it away from everyone if the biggest company in the world can't pay for it, how can normal people like us?

LOL! Many startups got much more and still died. There is determination and passion still involved. 😂🤣🤣
Okay I thought it’s determination and passion

If you have all the money capital without the backend determination, compassion and commitment, the business would not stand. Money is the last resources in the chain of success

I've always heard that if you owe the banks $20m , you don't have a problem, they have a problem. I want to be in the position to put some banks in problem.

This is the best way to download a malicious virus on your computer. Free download software that runs obfuscated code or your system to trigger remote execution. Copies all your passwords, keystrokes, account details etc. You get hacked because you want to watch free movie 😁
Two Bulgarian friends killed the entire streaming industry. It's called Stremio Torrentio. You get 4K content from Netflix, Disney , Hulu, and HBO Max combined for free. Here's how it works. Stremio is the player. Clean interface. Works on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and TV. You install it once and it looks like any other streaming app. Torrentio is the addon. You add it to Stremio in one click. It scrapes content from every major torrent provider on the internet simultaneously and delivers the best available stream directly to your player. 720p, 1080p, 4K. You pick the quality. It finds the link. → No account required → No subscription → Works on every device → 4K and HDR supported → Subtitles built in Netflix cannot shut this down. There is no central server to seize. No company to pressure. No domain to kill. It runs on your device and pulls from the open internet. The entire streaming industry is built on one assumption. That you will keep paying $70/month rather than spend 5 minutes on GitHub. That assumption just died in Sofia, Bulgaria. MIT License. 100% Opensource. github.com/Stremio/stremio-w… Get the addon here: stremio-addons.com/torrentio…

OPay is dead. Long live OPay. Six years ago during the pandemic, the Sino-Nigerian super app — one of Africa's first — was largely written off. It had just killed off ORide, OCar, OFood, OExpress, OList — the various business lines that made it "super." One analyst wrote cheerfully, "OPay surely could have wasted their money in more productive ways for the benefit of the ecosystem." Another declared, "Nigeria might be the wrong market for [OPay]." @OPay_NG now claims over 40 million users in Africa's most populous country — and 20 million daily active users. And just yesterday, the news broke that OPay hired Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, and JPMorgan as it targets a $4 billion US IPO. I wrote in 2020 that "it’s certainly still the early days for OPay in Africa." Six years later, I'd add this: Africa punishes the blitzscaler — it rewards the builder. — Read the 2020 piece, 'Blitzscaling in African markets' ➜ afridigest.com/blitzscaling-…
Opay Digital Services is working with Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, and JPMorgan as the Nigeria-focused payments platform prepares for an initial public offering, according to people with knowledge of the matter. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Growing up, it always sounded weird when I heard couples with 10 years age gap. It felt like a sugar daddy relationship. But now that I’m actively going for younger girls (I’ve alway dated ladies older than me), I’ve suddenly realized that girls I’m 10 years older than is a full grown adult. Even though I still cannot mingle with girls that young, it no longer feels like a taboo when I hear it. Lol

It would have been better to buy Suya with the money used to build this… at least you’d be able to explain what the money was used for.
Everyone is building crypto for people with apps. We’re experimenting and building for people with phones. Not smartphones. Not wallets. Not seed phrases. Just… a dial tone. Last weekend, I was deep in USSD architecture with @Emmauzoezie (CTO at @Nectar_finance). And one idea kept coming up: In Nigeria, the real financial network isn’t apps. It’s USSD. So we asked: What if DeFi lived there? With Payce, you dial a code. And you can: - Send money - Pay merchants - Buy airtime, data, electricity, cable - Check balances - Swap tokens - Access lending - Withdraw crypto to your local bank - Send crypto to a phone number No app. No friction. No learning curve. We said crypto would bank the unbanked, but built it for the already banked. Payce flips that, and here’s the part most people won’t expect. We’ll be open-sourcing it because this shouldn’t be owned by one company. It should be a rail anyone can build on. Dial in. Pay out. P.S. Payce is currently in private test. More details soon. Welcome to money that works the way people already live.

Any time I hear “Luxury” as a prefix before anything in Nigeria… e.g. Luxury Homes, Luxury Apartments, Luxury Shoes, etc… The first thing that comes to my mind is “scam”, “overpriced”, “low quality but with packaging”, etc. Nigerian vendors have really destroyed that word. Like have you gotten any “Luxury xyz” and it’s actually Luxury? The next word towing the same path is “Premium”.

Let me post this advice here because I know many will need it. About 9 years ago, a much younger me, after a break-up decided to visit a therapist/marriage counselor. We had some one-on-one sessions and then one day, she asked me to join her physical group session. There were lots of men complaining about cases of paying for school fees of a lady at least 3 of them: from secondary school to University level, then after graduating, the girl says she doesn't want to marry the man again because she's now bigger than his level. In one of the cases the girl had found a suitor that said he should calculate everything that he had spent on her so that he (the suitor) can do a transfer to pay him off. The physical, emotional and financial damage is enormous. I quickly learnt that this is a common case and some of the men who go through these issues are traders. They didn't go to school themselves, so they wanted someone who will birth brilliant children for them. Most of the men were doing okay, maybe not so wealthy, but they owned different types of trading businesses. I noticed the underlying issue and asked a fundamental question: "What is that thing, that when you do it for a lady, you will know that she's yours?" The counselor replied: "There's nothing on earth that you can do for a lady, or even a man to claim possession of that person". Then I asked a follow-up question: "So how do we prevent situations like these, when you feel like you have invested a lot on someone, that you can't afford to lose the person?", then she responded: "Very good question!" here came the teachable moment that I'd learn forever... she said: "Anything at all that you'll do for another person - a lady or a man, that will make you feel entitled to that person - that is the red line, don't do it, even if you have the means." So if buying an iPhone, a Car, paying school fees, building a house for her family etc., will make you feel entitled to a lady, don't do it. If you are going out on dates and you feel like its costing you a lot, go on dates as though you're only going to enjoy yourself and she's your 1. That does not mean that you can't build lovely and meaningful relationships, but anything at all that you'd commit to, that will make you feel "entitled" run away from it. Also, a lady should commit/contribute to a relationship too, it should not just be one-sided giving. It doesn't have to be money and it's definitely not sex. If she doesn't feel like she's invested in relationship, a break-up is easy, since she wasn't invested in the first place, and there are tell-tale signs for this. My two cents.✌️
Your husband sponsored your education and gave you a launcepad for your career. But it is the colleague buying you underwear and perfume that knows how to treat a lady 😊

So I got married last year to the man who sponsored my education. Have no kids yet though. Thanks to him, today I work as a government teacher in a secondary & high school. I actually just got recruited to this school where I teach Geography. But please, I'm confused. There's this particular guy, actually a male colleague of mine. He has been working here as a Biology teacher for 6 years. Since I arrived & started work, he has been so nice to me, guiding & showing me around, buying me gifts too, and keeping me company so I don't feel alone since I'm new. We got so close after a month. I don't know, but I just really feel so comfortable & safe with him, even more than my husband. I love his company. If I'm to be honest, I feel like I can share & tell him everything. Even my husband doesn't get me gifts like this guy does. He is such a kind & gentle man, i must comment, he truly knows how to treat a lady but something about his behavior, actually changed recently. Which leaves me confused. He switched from food gifts & started getting me underwear, bras, and perfumes. Even on 'Teachers Day' he bought me same gifts. This has actually been going on for about 2 weeks now. Please people, this keeps me wondering if it's okay that i keep collecting these gifts. Considering the fact that, I'm a married woman. Truth is, we've been so close, and I don't know how to go about rejecting these gifts since he is actually doing it with pure intentions, with no strings attached, and he's been so nice to me ever since I got here. I plead for your advice & guidance 🙏

Truepill sold for $525M. The founders made $0. Built a $1.6B unicorn, raised $370M , and walked away with nothing. Here's how that happens.

Doing deals with the Chinese in China is very different from doing business with the Chinese in Africa. There is a unique quest for dominance they have when in Africa that I haven't seen elsewhere. They most likely will eventually push you aside. In China, they compete for you.

Anytime my husband and I fought, I stopped cooking. I didn’t care if he had eaten or not. I would just make food for myself and leave him to sort himself out. He never argued. He would simply order food or fix something for himself. I’d only resume cooking when I was calm again. Then one month, we had another fight… and as usual, I didn’t cook. The month ended, and he still sent my allowance… Plus the full foodstuff money like he always does. He even sent the money he had promised my dad. I was surprised. I asked him why he would still send food money when I hadn’t been cooking. He simply said, “Because it’s my responsibility.” I felt so ashamed. That was the last time I ever did that. Now, even when I’m upset, I still cook for him. And I’ve noticed something… Most of our quarrels don’t even last anymore. Somehow, we always end up talking things out while eating. Small things like this save marriages.

One of my greatest mistake in Life as a Farmer is being a FARMER. I shouldn’t have invested in a sector that is dependent on Government policies and bottlenecks. In my line of business,there’s no escaping Government inefficiencies. Nigerian Government will do everything in agriculture except solving problems. For more than 20 years farmers have been saying that we suffer seasonal Glut because we simply cannot individually afford Machinery for Egg Pasteurization. Government will listen to our complaints, lie that they are coming up with a NEGPRO scheme and go ahead to simply do the opposite of what was agreed. With high Electricity and Gas prices, investors are guaranteed not make their money back as Egg powder produced in Nigeria will fail to compete with Global market. Companies will rather import than buy made in Nigeria raw materials. State Governors are worse, they simply have no clue of what to do outside of using fertilizer as a political tool. They have refused to build or sustain any critical infrastructure (Dams, Health and safety of animals, meaningful collaborations or Training) The CBN under Emefiele refused to allow the Bank of Agriculture to do its job. With the growing insecurity and policy missteps farmers in Nigeria have little to no incentive to continue to run or grow their businesses. Don’t go into Agriculture, it’s simply not worth it.
