Considering that we are talking here about the Russian Bank, and the alleged Russian citizens who sell their legal bank cards to interested customers through intermediaries - there is something called Schengen Visa that every Russian citizen must get in order to enter the EU (legally of course). Such a visa is usually valid for a maximum of 90 days after it is issued, and the issuance of the visa and monitoring of its duration is supervised by the immigration authorities via a database. First thing that you should know, is that an overstayed visa never goes unnoticed. The immigration authorities have registered in their databases every person that enters and leaves the Schengen, and every overstaying, even just for a day, is recorded. Secondly, intentional or unintentional, no overstaying is left unpunished. It could be a fine, immediate deportation or even getting banned from entering the Schengen Zone for a specific amount of time. I am not misleading people or writing nonsense, there is nothing wrong with what I have stated in any post. Again nonsense. I guess you do not know that EU states can issue so called national visas that allow to stay 365 days a year in some EU country and 90 days in the whole EU. I have had in the past D-type national Polish visa and stayed all the year in EU that way legally. https://www.gov.pl/web/diplomacy/visasI confirm again that the type of pan european monitoring you mentioned in your previous post exists only your mind. |

Some features are still frozen, for example you cannot make EUR/USD exchange inside your account
Since today, exchange operations are restored as well. Looks like Payoneer is too big to fail  |

What a nonsense! You do not understand what sanctions mean. Sanctions disallow some certain operations for some certain bank or institution. Did you take a look at "the sanctions that Russia has"? Please read the original as you studied russian at school: https://www.rbc.ru/economics/31/07/2014/570420109a794760d3d40648VTB was denied from european credit market, political target was to limit Russia to get currency from abroad but not to control every single operation of every russian tourist  What a 5-point score for you, congratulations in an attempt to portray Lucius as a fool who doesn't know what he's talking about  Maybe you should look at the meaning of the word tourist and compare it to someone who is permanently resident in a country. A Russian tourist cannot come to France, Germany or the UK and be a tourist for a year legally, and whether anyone will be suspicious that a tourist from Russia uses his card in those countries all year round without actually ever leaving his country is a question for those dealing with the prevention of money laundering, terrorist financing or tax evasion.
Since some consider this service to be something completely legal and normal, I will try to seek the opinion of some relevant participants in the whole story - so I will start from the bank that issued the card, and various EU agencies that deal with such things. Let me know please that pan european agency that controls residence/non residence status of all people in EU and then matches VISA/Mastercard transactions against that data? Do you really think it is possible, especially in terms of privacy regulations?  My relative has obtained a residence permit in Poland and state authorities could not even check without his passport stamps how many days a year he stayed in EU. What a nonsense! Do not mislead people on the forum, your hypothesis is not your experience. |

Gentlemen, we've had a very productive discussion here. Let's keep it this way  Other than that JollyGood please take a look at LeGaulois post, he has added the image of the card. You were inquiring about it before. How much my knowledge of Cyrillic serves me (and I was forced to learn it in school), the card was issued by a Russian BTБ (VTB) bank https://www.vtb.ru/ . I had a personal suspicion that it was not a bank in the EU, and the card only confirms that. Given the sanctions that Russia has, all transactions are under control and everything suspiciously is reported. What a nonsense! You do not understand what sanctions mean. Sanctions disallow some certain operations for some certain bank or institution. Did you take a look at "the sanctions that Russia has"? Please read the original as you studied russian at school: https://www.rbc.ru/economics/31/07/2014/570420109a794760d3d40648VTB was denied from european credit market, political target was to limit Russia to get currency from abroad but not to control every single operation of every russian tourist |

Bitrefill is a good and useful service. I have been using it for years.
I respect it because they were on of the first to provide a practical use to Lightning Network.

I put today 101€ my account and they say is 46€. And this stupid card don't work my country.
I used Wirex in the past and I have never had similar problems. Check your activity log, there can't be discrepancy or there is a bug that should be reported. |

When it comes to cold storage better use something tested by time. Security has to be tested again and again.

It sounds interesting.
But what happens if bank closes the card for crypto usage? Moneyback?
I had bad experience in the past using BUNQ+Kraken. It was approved by BUNQ from the beginning but after several withdrawals account was suspended.

I used Wirex for a while in Europe, it worked with no problems for me. However they have problem to transfer out payments now, you can only spend with card.

Bunq suspended my account after several withdrawals from Kraken  Stay away... Does anyone know some KYC free debit card service? |

why advcash is too slow ? their last announcement was in November for international card program, that still beta and customers have to wait a little bit more smh.....three months is not a little period . in meantime , if it's just technical reasons, they have just learned already from launching the european card program not long time ago , so why it takes forever to achieve similar goals? I guess that they have to find a company that issues the cards for the other regions, a company which will be OK to work with Bitcoin cards and it doesn't have too big fees. Most probably this is not so easy to achieve, else we'd have hundreds of flavors of international Bitcoin cards. It is your dream. Today situation with VISA and Mastercard will not allow such "company" exist at all. I think so. The only reliable anonymous card is to have a nominee to open a card in a bank for you! |

Though EOS was imagined to be a better form of Ethereum, the team has not disclosed the real full form of the abbreviation or wether EOS is even an abbreviated name.
But yes, they are going to give a competition to ETH.
I believe that you need to have both Ethereum and EOS in your investment portfolio. As for me personally, I do not consider coins in terms of their functionality, but in terms of their investment attractiveness.

To sort out a good project from a bad one you should do your own analysis. Look at how much the project is already on the market, is there a finished product or not, is this a team, how many competitors. Then you can take a look at what the project is about sites with ratings. This will be enough to conclude.
I fully agree with you! You need your own analysis of the ICO and, accordingly, the bounty campaign. Of course, will not be easy to carry out such an analysis for the first time. But, in the end, it is getting invaluable experience. |

Facebook blocks information on ICOs, it's so! And if you run a lot of bounty campaigns on Facebook, then this social network can just ban you for doing posts too often.
|

I do not participate in such ICOs, KYC is simply dangerous for life. Should you share your personal data, including place of residence?
As for me concerns, I don't do that, which I also recommend to you!

I assume that big business is just on the threshold of introducing cryptocurrencies into its business processes. When this happens, the value of both bitcoin and other coins will definitely rise sharply.

Very actual issue! But with the launching of regulation, tax evasion will become more and more difficult. How to cash out the profit? After all, the banks are at the same time with the tax authorities!
|

I think that we need to regularly withdraw 50% of the earned profit. This will ensure both the current cash flow and capital increment. The exact moment of exiting the deal also depends on your planning horizon.
