Bitcoin Investment Safety Advice

Bitcoin Investment Safety Advice

There are many more cryptocurrencies now. However, Bitcoin is still number one. A huge number of people are now becoming interested in investing in Bitcoin. This is because of the expected high returns on investment by them.  If you are interested in Bitcoin trading visit this link and get a fair idea on bitcoin trading.

Because of the volatility, it cannot be taken as a safe investment. But, to make it a good investment, one needs to take caution before investing it. In this article, you will find some safety advice you need to follow before making an investment in Bitcoin to make the investment less risky.

Advise 1- Invest What You Can Afford

The first thing you need to understand is you should never go all out while investing in Bitcoin. Not going all-out means, you should not invest the money that already has a function it needs to fulfill. If you have an excess of money and can easily and conveniently live without the money you’re going to invest, you should invest. However, if it is a bet that can cause a lot of damage in case of loss, it is not advised to invest that money in Bitcoin as the returns are not guaranteed. Make sure you’re financially backed up in case of losses.

Advice 2-Think Thoroughly and Do Not Act on Impulse

You need to think deeply before you invest in Bitcoin. You should follow patterns and previous trends to understand the market better, especially if you’re a beginner. Do your research properly before investing. There are predictions made by experts as well that you can find easily on search engines like google itself. You can take these predictions into consideration as well. Being said that, never act on impulse and do not get influenced by the hype. Do not make decisions you may regret later, and make sure to think with a clear head before investing.

Advice 3- Do Not Blindly Believe predictions

It is advised to consider predictions made by experts but not believe them blindly. The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile and gets affected by various factors. And all the factors that affect the market are not 100% predictable since no one has control over them. They are majorly external factors, and even specialists cannot give you a crystal-clear idea. All you can do is consider their opinion.

Advise 4- Rupee Cost Averaging

Rupee cost averaging is a simple technique that helps make an investment in Bitcoin less risky. In this, you need to invest a certain amount of money periodically rather than just investing it all at once. Here, the investor is going to invest, disregarding the pattern trends or if the market is low or high. This brings consistency and reduces the risk of investment.

Advice 5- Consider Long Term Investments

Investing in Bitcoin for short periods of time might not bring a good ROI or profit to you because of the volatility of the market. However, if you stick to it for the long term, it is more likely that you will start earning profit eventually. This also helps in understanding the market better and gives you better insights as to when to invest.

Advice 6- Do Not Have Big Expectations

Expectations hurt, especially when your money is on the line. You need to understand that there is a good chance you might not get your money back, and it is best to consider the money you are investing in as bad debt. If the investment turns out to be good, you can get high returns, but if not, there are chances of you losing all your money. Therefore, you need to be mentally prepared for it.

Conclusion

Bitcoin is not considered to be a safe investment, but you can make it considerably less risky by lowering your expectations, following trends, understanding the market better, investing consistently, and not acting on impulse or coming under peer pressure. Remember that it is your money. So, whatever the consequences are, you have to handle it. Therefore, do everything carefully, invest carefully. If you invest carefully and at the right times, you are bound to make it into a good investment.

The Gamr x Triller Collab for New Pan African eSports Tournament

The Gamr x Triller Collab for New Pan African eSports Tournament

The African market is the fastest growing in the gaming world. A sharp rise in gamers is best viewed in Sub-Saharan Africa, with 186 million players, compared to 77 million in 2015.

Africa follows a global trend for most gamers on mobile platforms, but it takes it to the extreme. More than 95% of players in Africa are mobile gamers. Smartphone manufacturers are making a big push, seeing the growth of the above-average mobile users. The low starting point is why the mobile phone market has 4.6% growth compared to the global rate of 3%.

Working together on eSports in Africa

Two modern platforms, Triller and Gamr, work together on eSports tournaments for African gamers. Although there are many players and colossal potential, the eSport movement is still developing in the continent.

Triller is a multimedia platform for creators. It uses artificial intelligence to help artists. The idea behind Triller is to create unique content, remix it with the venue and share it through more than 100 filters and editing options.

Gamr Africa is a Nigerian eSports platform that works in 12 countries and gathers more than 65,000 gamers. They recognized the potential and provided infrastructure for gamers who won’t become professionals and organisers who want to manage tournaments. So far, Gamr has organised more than 150 tournaments.

The most popular games

Since mobile gamers are the majority in Africa, eSport partially tweaked the game choice for the tournaments. As a result, call of Duty Mobile and PUBG Mobile are essential parts of the Gamr tournaments.

The boundaries between console or PC games and mobile are increasingly slimmer. Mobile versions of popular shooters are almost identical to originals, and games like Raid: Shadow Legends, Genshin Impact, League of Legends: Wild Rift, and Grid Autosport all have incredible graphics.

Mobile users still love casual games, and the iGaming sector also benefits from more gamers and mobile phones in Africa. Users can play thousands of modern games on the 32Red phone casino. Most platforms make it possible for their users to play on their smartphones, accessing the mobile versions of roulette, blackjack solitaire and other classic casino games. If you don’t play AAA titles, iGaming might be perfect instead.

Gamr X tournaments

Triller and Gamr organised the first GamrX final tournament for players from 10 African countries. The prize fund was $15,000, and after local qualification, Lagos hosted the best players from Kenya, Côte D’Ivore, Cameroon, Senegal, Uganda, Tanzania, Ghana, and host country Nigeria.

Triller provided a live stream, and Gamr organised the tournament, equipment, and other Eko Hotel Convention Centre infrastructure.

Tournament finals played out in five games: Fifa21, Call of Duty Mobile, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter V, and PUBG Mobile. Around 20 gamers were in contention for each game. The entry Fee was a symbolic $9 for the Fifa21 tournament, and the prize pool was $2750 with $1000 for first place.

The partnership between two multimedia platforms enabled engagement throughout Africa. It is a win for both companies, where Gamr gets a social media boost from the large Triller community. In addition, the platform for creators brings premium gaming content to millions of users.

Continent of opportunity

With 1.2 billion people, Africa is a continent of incredible opportunities for eSports development. Almost 40% of the southernmost country are gamers. Some countries have more gamers than others, and in the leading role is South Africa, with 24 million gamers.

Ghana is second with 27% of the gaming population, and Nigeria is a close third with 23%. As the most populous African country, Nigeria is slowly becoming a hub for gaming, primarily thanks to Gamr.

The organisation is highly dedicated to the gaming community and has managed to organise numerous tournaments so far. Connecting gaming communities from African countries demands work, but the active scene is developing.

Two other countries with a significant number of players are Kenya and Ethiopia.

As a co-organizer, Triller will look for its opportunity to acquire more users. The platform is mobile-first and falls into the strengths of the African market. As a result, local artists can create engaging videos and gain more audiences.

Games adjustments

Game developers also recognized the massive potential for the African gaming community. So they are adding new elements in the popular games that allow gamers to own digital assets like characters. Again, blockchain technology is behind digital ownership.

Usiku Games Africa is a Kenyan company developing a new mechanism that will allow for more transparency in games. As a result, the gamers in Africa will get an additional element in their games, and developers will see an increase in the number of players paying for the games. More than 63 million out of 186 million gamers pay for the games, the most significant increase globally.

Digital currencies could streamline the income for both gamers and developers and further increase the gaming population.

Trends like eSports, digital currencies, and mobile gaming dominate the gaming scene in Africa. Triller and Gamr recognized those trends and developed intercontinental tournaments in five popular games.
