Heard about this recently.  Is this just another project that is going to mean something?  Its like a brand new thing like people making up coins or something...
1162  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Is the Best Stable Coin for Saving? on: March 10, 2021, 03:41:14 AM
Isn't it still


USDT

USDC


In this Order?
1163  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: TRC 20 is secure as ERC 20 ? on: March 10, 2021, 03:33:14 AM
Why does tether and usdc and all these other coins do this?  I had never used usdt or usdc but if you send from one network to another, it won't go through?  I mean, how does that make sense?  I mean its not okay you sending btc address to bch address etc.  If that is the case, wouldn't that mean lot of time ppl send usdt or usdc... it gets lost because its sent to wrong network?
1164  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Iphone attack/hack? I was asked for name, number and IMEI on: March 10, 2021, 03:30:40 AM
I don't have crypto on my iphone.  But i am logged into my gmail/yahoo email and also have apps like coinmarketcap etc.  Thus wouldn't want an employee to see these apps if you know what i mean.


But as long you password lock it and make sure you reset it after ten passcode attempts, that should be good right?  Again i would go there only to have them replace a new battery for my old iphone etc.

Does anyone know if getting a new cheap windows laptop and then installing linux would solve all these issues?  By that I mean using it to web browse sites that might have virus/malware and watch/stream porn and tv etc?


Would using linux on a windows laptop solve this issue?  Also i have used a chromebook to do this but issue is it doesn't have much space and I want to download videos etc.

Did you use a reshipper though to ship it to PO Box or not?  I assume you got a PO Box at your local USPS assuming you are in the US?  Is that best option for the US if you want to order this?


But is there no point if you already ordered a nano ledger s previously from ledger since you are already in their database?
1167  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Steps To Take If You Believe Your Seed Has Been Found/Compromised? on: March 08, 2021, 04:59:46 AM
Well if i send it to any exchange it would be a legit exchange... coinbase or gemini or binance.



Also i could send it to electrum but the thing is again, it is a program on your computer and you shouldn't keep much coins in it.  That is why a while back i moved it from electrum to nano ledger s.



1168  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDT and USDC Questions on: March 08, 2021, 04:58:07 AM
Okay so if i trade btc or altcoin for usdt or usdc on binance... now let say i want to send that usdt or usdc to


nano ledger s


or


Coinbase



Which of the options would i choose in each of these situations to make sure there won't be an issue?  Again i never heard of this.  I thought when you send or withdraw usdt or usdc... it would be like a regular coin etc.  What other coins do this?  I mean if you send btc or ltc or bch... well you would know what that address is.  But with this, there are few options which again i never heard of.



I mean wouldnt that mean lot of usdt or usdc is lost because of sending to the wrong chain? 


Wouldnt binance chain and binance smart chain be the main chains then?  Then you put down tether (omni) and that sound even more confusing.
1169  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BUSD Vs. USDT on: March 08, 2021, 12:15:46 AM
Isn't usdt better since you could use it on every exchange as oppose to busd?  Because if you want to cashout busd to your us bank account, dont you now need to pay two fees?  One to convert to usdt and then to fiat on coinbase?
1170  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDT and USDC Questions on: March 07, 2021, 11:51:45 PM
Wait im confused.  So if you trade btc or altcoin for usdt or usdc on binance... which usdt or usdc are you getting?


BEP2 or BEP20?



I never heard of this.  I thought usdt or usdc is just a stablecoin and thats it... but theres like two or three types of it?  So how do you know which one you have on binance then before sending it to coinbase?
1171  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: [Warning] Fake MyEtherWallet website on: March 07, 2021, 11:48:13 PM
Well aren't there sites where you visit it... it could automatically download an exe file or something like that?  Or that is not possible unless you click on something specially on that site?
1172  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: BINANCE,GEMINI,CZ,COINBASE TWITTER IS HACKED!! on: March 07, 2021, 11:42:49 PM
I recalled this a while back.  Did clicking on the link automatically get you malware/trojan/keylogger or virus?  Or you still had to send some coins to them in order to get hacked?  Did any software automatically download when clicking on those links?
1173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: [Warning] Fake MyEtherWallet website on: March 07, 2021, 11:33:32 PM
Is there any risk if you go to these sites but don't type in your seed?  Like do they give malware/trojan/keylogger just for visiting the site?  Does it download anything automatically to your computer when you go to these sites?
1174  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Kucoin Insane Interest Rates for USDT (Opportunity for USDT lenders) on: March 07, 2021, 11:29:45 PM
Are the rates still this high now?
1175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDT and USDC Questions on: March 07, 2021, 11:07:53 PM
Whats the difference between

BEP2
BEP20
ERC20



Why would anyone ever use the last option if its so expensive?  Also for USDT, how do you know if you using BEP2 or BEP20?

Did waves.exchange wallet make a change again in the layout/how you log in?


I haven't logged into my waves.exchange account in a long time.  When i used to log in, i had to type in my password when accessing the waves.exchange wallet.  Back then i used waves lite wallet and the waves wallet and then it was the waves.exchange.



Right now, i see option is log in by


Email
ledger
software - log in via seed, private key or keystore file (not recommended)




Since i never connected my waves wallet with my nano ledger s, i assume i can't do that now.  So i have to use either email or software right?  And software is my seed?  Which would you recommend?



Also, why does waves keep changing all these things?  Back then the waves lite was with the google chrome store... then it changed to Waves New Dex.... then the waves.exchange.


So what do you recommend to log in with it?  Email or seed?  I previously had to type in my seed a while back when i used the waves new dex and then the waves.exchange so i assume do that?  But that mean everytime after this, i need to type my waves seed every single time?  So there is no more accessing waves account by password?  I don't understand this.




Waves.support, can you answer this?  Right now when i open the waves exchange program, it give me three options either


Email
Ledger
Software



When I click on email, it ask me to create an account.  So i type in an email and password.  But once i do that, i would have to confirm the link in the email?  But once i do that and log in with my password, would i have access to my waves exchange account?  Or i still need to type in my waves seed?  Again i have my waves seed with me. 


Or do i just click on software instead?  I don't have the waves installed on my nano ledger s.  But this is the same waves exchange program i been using on my computer ever since i downloaded it a while back when i had to use it after waves new dex no longer worked.


I did recall when the waves lite client no longer worked... i had to use the waves new dex and enter my waves seed to get into my account.  Then put in a password to log in each time.


But once the waves new dex was no more and we had to use the waves exchange, i had to type in my waves password again to access it.  Then put in a password to log in each time. 


So which of these three methods do i choose?  If i type in my seed, does that mean i need to type my seed every single time to access my waves wallet?  If so, i dont like that.  I would prefer to be typing a password each time.  But why does it ask to create an email to connect my account?  With waves lite client and waves new dew and waves exchange before this change, it never ask to link an email.


Can you or anyone else explain this?  Haven't logged into my waves exchange wallet in a long time since i saw this new log in.

What about other people like Max Keiser?  I got to assume people like that live in gated communities or luxury apartments with security right?


Like unless you live in a luxury high rise, isn't it always a concern?  I ask this because i hear about how lot of gated communities and celebrity homes even in LA are broken into so how do people like this handle it?  I did recall Dan Blitzerian held some party at a house he rented or stayed at and hired armed navy seals at the door and obviously that is more than enough protection for any one trying to do something.
1178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / USDT and USDC Questions on: March 07, 2021, 10:35:32 PM
Say i sell btc or some altcoin on binance or exchange for USDT or USDC.  Let say i sell to get around l,000 usdt or l,000 usdc worth.


Now i want to send either that amount to coinbase and sell it for fiat to my US bank account.  What are the fees to transfer that amount in usdt or usdc to coinbase?


How much would it cost to convert that l,000 usdt or l,000 usdc to fiat on coinbase?  Once that is done... doing an ACH transfers to my US bank account is free right? 
1179  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Steps To Take If You Believe Your Seed Has Been Found/Compromised? on: March 07, 2021, 10:32:46 PM
So I have a nano ledger s.  I'm abroad outside the US but a US citizen.  My seed is back in the US. 



Now let say you suspect or know your seed has been found and someone had access to it... what is the immediate steps one should take once they know of this?  Of course it could be too late already especially if its an online hack.



But let say you believe someone had physical access to your seed and they could even be going to their computer to enter your seed and get into your account.  What are the immediate steps one should take if this happens?



I did keep coins in electrum a while back and still have the software on my computer but i transferred the coins from it to my nano ledger s a while back.  But if something like this happens, would the best immediate thing to do be immediately send the btc from the nano ledger s to either electrum or say an exchange like your coinbase or gemini or binance account?



Obviously if you do send it to electrum, you need to make sure your laptop is malware/virus free.  But wouldn't sending it to your coinbase or gemini or binance account probably be the best option? 



Most importantly in cases like this, would you make sure you pay the highest sending fee possible?  I believe it cost over twenty five dollars now to send btc now right?  But obviously if you have a good amount of btc since well even one btc is a lot now, that is what most would do here right?  Because you would have to worry about the other person sending it to their wallet before you right? 



Also would you send the whole balance at once or you try to break it into two or three transactions?  It would be stupid to do that since time is very important right?  But assuming you never send any btc from your hardware wallet to your coinbase or gemini or binance account, well there should be still no concern right since well when you logged in, they tell you this is your btc address.  For me, I always prefer sending a test transfer to a new site i never used just to make sure it works.  But with how expensive sending btc is now... is it worth just to test it out in case a situation like this arises?

I will be going to the apple store to have them install a new battery as my battery is a few years old.  Besides locking the screen with a passcode, what security precautions should one take?  I know there is option to reset your device if you put wrong passcode ten times right?


I do have apps like coinbase/blockfolio and those apps on it.  I am also logged into my gmail/yahoo emails as well when you click on mail.  Do i need to log out of all my emails before i leave the iphone at the apple store since they usually take a bit over an hour or two to replace the battery?


A while back i went to apple store to do battery replacement and i came back and got my phone... i did passcode lock it... but i did not put something like after ten attempts, it resets etc.  So how would you handle going to apple store when getting new battery or repairs then?  I mean obviously if they see you have a crypto wallet they could tell you have coins.
