Are you from the US and trying to use it?


1242  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance questions on: February 09, 2021, 06:37:10 AM
Anyone here that is a US Citizen using binance without an issue and never did verification and also overseas?  If you could log in with no issue and trade, is it safe to assume its fine to continue to use binance.com?


I heard on twitter lot of us citizens in the US use a vpn to have access to binance.com.  So would it be safe to do that?  Well my assumption is if you are overseas and US citizen and log in with a non us ip address since you are overseas, that probably would be fine?


But what if they ask you for KYC then?  Has anyone been asked for KYC from binance ever?  Their two btc withdraw limit is obviously huge and works for most people.
1243  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / What are these ridiculous new coins showing up in top 50 coins on Coinmarketcap? on: February 09, 2021, 06:33:21 AM
Almost everyday, what I notice is coins i never heard of suddenly in the top 50 coins on coinmarketcap.  Some of them are even top ten now... like polkadot.  Where in the world do these coins come from and why do they just suddenly show up like this?


Example, avalanche, cosmos, aave, uniswap, compound, synthetix.  Where are these coins even coming from?


1244  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My 1 month testing trade result $500 profit on: February 09, 2021, 06:27:06 AM
Where you from and what site you use to cash out to your bank account?

Would you say he is mostly right?  Well what about holding most of your coins but trading a small percentage of them?  I mean if someone daytrades, well they can get profit... holding... you won't unless you sell.

Isn't this good in a way because most scammers are from there?
1247  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the most discreet way to hide your crypto from thieves? on: February 09, 2021, 06:23:51 AM
Do you mean more of your seed or your wallet?  Example if you have a hardware wallet like ledger or trezor.  I mean wouldn't most people nowaday probably heard of know what it is that though?
1248  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to take BITCOIN profit without selling? on: February 06, 2021, 11:39:34 PM
Wouldn't lending it on blockfi or celcius be a way to do this for interest?
1249  Economy / Exchanges / Re: storing BTC at exchange wallet long term on: February 06, 2021, 11:34:59 PM
Well what about those that do daytrading?  Can't imagine they are sending btc/altcoins/usdt/usdc to their hardware wallet daily and doing it every single day right?  And also with the high fees it is to send now?
1250  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: 🔷 Waves Tech - a powerful blockchain-agnostic ecosystem on: February 06, 2021, 10:43:05 PM
Someone mentioned airdrop on for waves on binance.



What is minimum amount of waves you need to get the airdrop?  It obviously depends how much waves you have right?  Example someone has 50 waves as oppose to someone with 500 waves would get less of the airdrop?


How much is the current airdrop worth at the time if one has waves there now?  Example imagine someone with 500 waves and put it into binance... how much are they looking to earn when the airdrop happens?  Like how much is that coin now and how much coins would they get?  Like is that airdrop coin now worth pennies or how much?
1251  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: 🔷 Waves Tech - a powerful blockchain-agnostic ecosystem on: February 03, 2021, 02:34:21 AM
Haven't logged into my waves.exchange wallet in a while and when i did... it seems login is different?


Why does it ask for email address and password?


It is either that option or seed.


Its been a while since i logged into my waves exchange wallet but im pretty sure i recall i only had to enter one thing into it... whether it was the password or the waves seed.  Can someone tell me when did this change?  And months back... was it with the waves seed or the password for the waves exchange wallet?


Thanks.

You can choose between "e-mail" and "seed"! If you choose "seed" you only need your password (like before)!


https://medium.com/wavesexchange/decentralized-threshold-crypto-custody-5503a5d518e8



Can someone tell me when did the waves.exchange wallet implemented this?  How long ago was this?


Also before the email option was implemented... when you logged into your waves.exchange wallet... was it always type in your seed?  Or was it a password?  I haven't logged into my waves wallet in a while but i thought... it was a password to log into the waves.exchange wallet?  Or was it always the seed option?





Can someone answer this?  So almost all of you log into your waves.exchange wallet everytime with your seed then?


Back then when it was the waves lite client and then waves new dex wallet etc, i recall i signed in each time with a password.  And im pretty certain when i used the waves exchange wallet, i had to type in my password.  Or it was the seed when you log into waves exchange wallet?


Again, i never saw an option to log in email as when i saw this not long ago... i thought... is this new?  So everyone here just type their waves seed every single time they log into their waves exchange wallet?
1252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which Stable coin is the Best for Investment This Year on: February 02, 2021, 11:59:15 PM
Can you store these stablecoins like usdt and usdc etc in a wallet like ledger or electrum?  Or does it always have to be in an exchange?

You can use Ledger as a Tether wallet and store Tether ERC20 tokens in it. I don’t know for sure about Electrum. Everyone determines the options for storing coins for themselves. It only depends on your preferences and the capabilities of the wallet that suits you.


Can you also store usdc coin on the nano ledger as well?
1253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Strategies to save off Bitcoin fees? on: February 02, 2021, 10:28:15 PM
Isn't the best way to sell btc for litecoin or bnb or nano and withdraw that way?
1254  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How often are people really hacked out of their BTC? on: February 02, 2021, 10:22:32 PM
Not so often, and when it happens, usually the problem is in people, not the bitcoin itself.

People are using weak passwords, clicking on phishing links, downloading phishing wallets, etc. Hackers are getting smarter and trying new stuff every day.


Does clicking on phishing links enough for a hack?  Can a phishing link contain a keylogger/malware?  Or you still need to enter you seed etc in order for a hacker to get in?
1255  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How often are people really hacked out of their BTC? on: February 02, 2021, 10:21:56 PM
As far as I remember, I only experienced my BTC wallet hacking once. At that time, I wasn't careful and I clicked a phishing link, which resulted
in hackers being able to access my BTC wallet. Fortunately, at that time I didn't store large amounts of BTC in that wallet. So the amount of loss
that I experienced was not that big.

This has been an unforgettable experience for me, so lessons can be learned from my bad incident. Always be careful when clicking a link, pay
close attention to the address of the link that is being accessed according to what we are going to aim for. And avoid clicking on unknown links.



Do you recall what phishing link this was?  Did you had to type anything into it or you just clicked on it and that was it?  Did you see any file being downloaded on your computer the moment you clicked on the link?


So it has to be a keylogger then right?  Because they basically see everytime you type in etc?


Always hear hacks come from ppl clicking on links... or downloading fake wallets then typing in the seed.  But did you type anything into the site?  So that site you visited... nothing really showed up and then you just closed the program like it was nothing?  Did you do virus/malware scan with your computer after clicking on the link?
1256  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How often are people really hacked out of their BTC? on: February 02, 2021, 10:19:26 PM
Most of the people who get hacked are those who mostly don't know device security, hacking comes from. malware and that malware are mostly cams from downloading software or application specifically those fakes made by hackers. You may asp get hacked by clicking a link sent to you by a stranger and putting some of your personal information. You won't get hacked if you have good knowledge, it is all about knowledge.


I assume you mean like downloading apps on the android or app store right?  But even if you download those apps, would your phone or computer/tablet get infected though?  Say you use electrum and keep coins there.



Or what about if you use a password manager and type your seed there?  Thing is... if someone puts a keylogger in your computer, then you are screwed no matter what right?  Since anything you have on your computer even if its encrypted can be seen by the hacker since a keylogger was put?
1257  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How often are people really hacked out of their BTC? on: February 02, 2021, 10:16:41 PM
Has anyone here been hacked and if so, how? We should make sure that we share our stories of being hacked, even if they are painful,  to ensure that people do not repeat other people's mistakes.

My wallet was never hacked but I experience some of my accounts get hacked in the past but luckily it's not my wallet or any funds related account.

Most of the common ways were through emails like for example you get a receiving an email from your bank which is not really your bank telling that you have 0 balance already, or getting a brand deal email where they require you to download a file that runs a script or has malware in it. You can't really protect yourself 100% from hacks since there is no such thing as being 100% hack-proof in the cyberworld, it could happen or not happened to you as well but it's always better to be safe than sorry just like everyone says. I already received a lot of emails from brand deals from my photography email wanting a deal or something that's obviously malware or phising stuff.

These are some tips that you could do to lessen the chance of getting hack:

-Think before you click, always be careful of clicking a suspicious link
-Use a strong password, use the different passwords in different accounts, you could use a password manager to help you manage many passwords.
-use 2FA authentication, hackers might get access to your account but if you enable this it might help to avoid the hacker accessing your account.
-Only download from trusted sources, since this is where most of the virus and malware came from.
-Do not connect to an untrusted network or wifi, you could use VPN if you really need to.



If you clicked on a suspicious link and it directs you to a website and thats all... you dont see any program being downloaded... is your computer still safe though?  I heard if you click on a link and download an exe file... well that can be malware/trojan etc.

Can someone explain how the hacks happened with myetherwallet?  I heard this a while back.  So you went to the wrong myetherwallet site?
1259  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Survey: 25% of crypto users not securing assets as well as they think on: February 02, 2021, 09:56:33 PM
Has there been cases of users getting their crypto hacked in their coinbase/gemini/kraken/binance/bitstamp account though?  Assuming they have two factor authentication, wouldn't that be safe enough?  I did hear about that sim card scam thing... but could a hacker get into someone's coinbase/gemini exchange account etc?  Because if you could... well they could easily send the btc and other coins to their own wallet right?
