Either 1) you make decisions and make things happen, or 2) decisions will get made for you, and they will happen to you.
Turns out, if you make intentional decisions and make things happen, you tend to get something that's much closer to what you really want...

An Igbo person might be more closely related to an Igala person if he is from Nsukka (Enugu). And an Aro person (Abia) might be more closely related to an Ibibio person than both Igbo persons are closely related. Ethnic proximity is the true tell of genetic relationship and en language or cultural differences. Someone from Egebma (Ijaw) might be closely related to a person from neighbouring Ondo town (Yoruba) than to someone as far Yenagoa and that Yoruba man from that Ondo town less related to another Yoruba person far as Oyo which is another Yoruba land.
My point is that Nigerians are just a spectrum of people closely related than they admit and the unifying factor "ethnicities" are not even a distinguished genetic fact. There's not even anyone with ethnic purity to begin with and you that Igbo man who don't like an Hausa man might be an Hausa by an ancient or near distance past ancestor, that Yoruba man who don't like an Igbo man might just actually share that "tainted" blood and don't even realize it, the example goes on and on.
Since it is hard for one to be off ethnic purity, why don't we just all embrace the true real identity of being Black and Africa n?, in the end that's the true undisputed identity. 💚✊🏾🌍🇳🇬

One of the fast ways to catch bug during audit is by mentally delete each return, revert, else or break and ask what invariant breaks. If the answer is “money is created or lost”, that line is very load-bearing and deserves a close look at every caller and every edit ..

That gap is where exploits live.
we match protocols with security researchers, who specialize in that exact architecture,
If you’re building and haven’t been reviewed yet, write me up, let me known your budget

They are scammers.I hv been on their line before. He spoke about bounties as if they will flinch a bit about the report if reported and pay nicely.If I were the hacker, I will claim to be on whitehat rescue of fund,this willopen grounds for negotiations, 20% will be happily paid
For your project to be hacked.
It screams 2 things:
- Either your team takes security as shit.
- You don’t value whitehats enough.
You are lucky to have encountered this experience, fine happy for you.
If Nk caught your project, all these investigations shit is crap.

Norway doesn’t have anyone in the top 100 but ranks 3rd globally in HDI. Nigeria is 161 globally.
I could give zero fucks about Dangote’s wealth.

I don’t think people realise how big of a deal this is. Alhaji Aliko Dangote is among the 40 richest people in the world. Not top 500 or top 1000. Like only 37 people are ahead of him. Out of billions of people. That is crazy.

Today we are announcing that S&P Global has entered an agreement to acquire OpenZeppelin.
Onchain finance is growing from an emerging market into core financial infrastructure, and the standards and rails our team and community built are becoming the rails of global finance. Opens facilitated over $37 trillion in value transferred, with the vast majority of the largest DeFi protocols, blockchain networks, stablecoins and tokenized funds relying on them.
With S&P Global, we expect to accelerate the impact of onchain finance, backed by more than a century of trust in global markets, benchmarks, and risk frameworks.
To our clients and to all the users of OpenZeppelin open source tools:
• OpenZeppelin Contracts and all our open source applications and tools remain open source, free, and publicly maintained on GitHub. Building open source standards stays a core priority.
• Audits, engineering work, and ecosystem programs continue with the same team, brand, quality, and customer experience, with what will be the added benefit of S&P Global's research capacity, market data, and institutional reach.
For the last decade, OpenZeppelin has set the security standard for onchain finance. Today begins a new chapter for that mission, together with one of the most trusted names in global markets.

This is my take for so long now.. If we don't plan about our population rise, foreign state will indirectly have us on their budget and the game has already started
It’s common sense na.
Nigeria is projected to have roughly 376 million people by 2054 and become the world’s fifth-largest population. Yet ask any Nigerian government official what the country’s concrete long-term plan is for managing a population of that scale in terms of housing, food, energy, jobs, transport, education, healthcare, security, and it’s mostly crickets.
But I can almost guarantee you that the intelligence and strategic institutions of serious countries are already thinking about Nigeria decades ahead.
They all have analysts studying Nigeria’s demographics, political stability, economy, resources, migration, security, and regional influence, not necessarily because they care about Nigeria’s development, but because they need to understand how a country of that size could affect their own interests.
We often assume nobody is planning because we don’t plan.
All those serious states don’t operate like that. They study trends years ahead, build scenarios, identify risks, manipulate and shape our realities where they have the power to do that, and position themselves accordingly.
It makes me laugh so hard when people say CIA this and that, and many Nigerians still just can't fathom it. 🥴

Another bullets in the side in my defi career. From codearena now to balancer. ..Omg. The ogs are leaving the scene.
A proposal to wind down Balancer and distribute the treasury to BAL holders is live on the forum, authored by Marcus Hardt. Discussion is open; a Snapshot vote is expected to happen from 25 to 29 September.
Nothing changes today: pools and withdrawals work as they do now. Any wind-down action waits for the vote.

Debunking the Phantom Debts and Ecological Loan Fallacy
My attention has been drawn to trending claims by the Anambra State Government that my administration left behind inherited debts, including a ₦2 billion ecological loan, contractor liabilities, and unpaid salaries, gratuities, and pensions. This is completely false.
We systematically liquidated historical gratuities and arrears dating back several years, amounting to over ₦35 billion. At the point of handover, the state owed nothing in salaries, gratuities, or pensions, nor did we owe anything to any contractor for projects duly executed and certified.
The ₦2 billion ecological fund in question was released barely three months before the end of my tenure for the Oko/Umuchiana erosion crisis. Despite pressure to spend the money, I refused, insisting that it should be left for my successor because government is a continuum and the funds were tied to a specific project.
The money was therefore left 100 per cent intact in First Bank, in Account No. 2018779464, with a balance of over ₦2.13 billion.
It is important to stress that funds tied to specific projects or set aside for particular purposes were not even included in the over ₦75 billion in savings we left behind.
If anybody can establish anything to the contrary, I will stop campaigning. -PO

Thanks for clearer explanation of this exploit. Benzolend met @TSeersec team early the year for an audit , but no agreement was concluded.
Around July 11th of the year, Benzolend was hack. This is not a private key leak nor a flash loan normal attack. It was a missing check :: The oracle Bls verifier accepted an identity signature and an identity key

I left religion because of the simplistic Idea of God. But traditional and culturally, the Catholic church has it. I so much love this one universal church.
This traditional dance has been a standard part of the devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe since the 16th century.
Modern "trads" see something they do not like and think "Vatican II!!" when in reality inculturation is as old as the faith itself.

The perfect slaves in the entire milky way galaxy. They can adapt to every form of hardship thrown at them and the Nigerian politicians know this.
Nigerians trapped on the Benin road are creating extra paths in the bush to escape the gridlock.😭
See the pains and sufferings the people have to go through because of a terrible and irresponsible leadership!✍️
