I am aware of that. OP is from Pinksale Launchpad and I helped him to onboard to the forum. But not sure why copper membership stuck even he paid more than the required amount. I helped many clients to buy copper membership. But didn't face any issue like this.

Admin, can you please check the issue?

Can't depend on that. Binance also offered withdrawal without KYC, but later they changed the rules. KYC doesn't the main fact when you are using a centralized exchange. It's because you are forced to comply with that once they will disable withdrawal for KYC.

By the way, is Okex rebranded as OKX? The domain seems to redirect to okx.com. So yes, though I didn't use it but didn't hear any bad things as well. So I can't say exactly about their behavior.

Though late reply, but just do not fund. If you do not want to gamble with your fund then don't look for ICO investment projects. All are just useless and scammers. Everyone here just eats our money. No real concept nor real development. They just raised funds and skip or rug pull. Don't believe in any brand new project. Better just choose a few reputable and top coins from the market and invest in the dip. So you wouldn't lose your 100% portfolio.

Your key = Your fund. So compromise that cause of lost your funds. Usually, I write all the passwords and seed phrases on my offline notebook and keep them in safe places. And of course, I have been using a hardware wallet to store my funds. It's quite safer than any wallet software due to password protection and sign transaction from the device. So write your seed phrase on multiple pice of paper and keep safe places. Shouldn't lose it anyway, otherwise, you would be in trouble later on.

Though this isn't something new, but thanks for sharing with us. You and other users should take a lesson from here. Still, a lot of people do not understand the value of the seed phrase. Everything would be lost within sec. The policy that would save you is don't be greedy. A lot of greedy offers would receive through social media, you need just ignore all of them. Even you shouldn't click on any links to avoid malware attacks. Especially don't fall into beautiful girls trap.

Bitcoin value created by the community and price depends on the demand. I don't want to mix price and value together. It's because Bitcoin fully backed the community, on the other hand, the price works based on new investors. We can see many cryptocurrencies have been created after Bitcoin, but it's all not appreciated than Bitcoin and the only reason for community acceptance. Also, new instinctual investors enter Bitcoin which has an impact on the price. It's not all about mining Bitcoin.

I don't like a gamble with my funds lol. So no, new project investment is prohibited for me. Even I do not gamble with existing shitcoins, I learned from my past mistake. I bought a shitcoin and lost everything there. After then I aimed only to invest in Top coins on the markets. Never mind I wouldn't be a millionaire in a night and I don't need it so. Making small profits regularly is good enough for me. So, if you like to gamble on a new project just be careful. Most of the projects are just scams or rug pull.

It looks like OP spreading FUD or worried about regulation. Don't post this kind of sensitive information without a reference link. I didn't hear something like that recently, rather than Russia wondering to regulate crypto which would be a positive move. While the USA allows citizens to use cryptocurrency hence I don't believe Russia will ban it. Otherwise, Russia would be backdated on the digital crypto world.

Nothing news, we have many experiences like this. And thanks to Kraken CEO for telling the truth. If we don't like to freeze our assets then have to move into a non-custodial wallet or deal it p2p. But we are not hearing that and there is not much we can do as well. We are forced to use centralized exchange due to Liquidity and pair. But need to make sure the amount isn't big there and not hold for a long time. Otherwise, at any time fund would freeze.

Let's be honest here, I love Bitcointalk for learning & earning. Yes, at the beginning I joined here for learning Purpose I was aware of bounty but didn't join. And to be honest I wasn't aware of what is signature campaign lol. However, day by day I learned a lot of things from the forum which has helped me to earn from here. Not only from signature but also from other marketing sources. So both things lead me to love this forum. Still need to learn a lot of things.

Development and marketing each other are connected strongly. Since you are talking about the bounty program, I am assuming likely you gonna launch something related to the token launch. So here you need to tighten your seat belt because it's quite hard to find real sources of the marketing. Those who aren't experts in marketing waste a lot of money the wrong way. So research the market in real-time. Ask me if you need any help or DM me, I had worked on a couple of projects for marketing.

Marketing is the key to success but the condition is if you can hit the right point. Otherwise, you may just waste your money and time. To be honest, most of the advertising Agencies are just here to eat your money they don't care about success. Of course, there are some legit advertising Agencies but the cost will be too high which is quite a bigger amount for a new project. So first of all you need to research as much as you can and find the right points where you need to hit to be a success. I might help you but I need a clear explanation about your project and details budget and your target. There should be an initial marketing budget.

Thanks for sharing with us, I never used this wallet nor do I know about their service. Just wondering was the wallet custodial? If so then this is the disadvantage of using the custodial wallet. If it was non-custodial then the fund should be recovered by the seed phrase. Not sure why they shut down the wallet service, those users will notice after the shutdown will fall in trouble. There wouldn't be an easy process of recovering funds.

The first thing I learned from the forum was about contributions. If you wanna become an established member of this forum there are no alternatives. And of course, for that, you need to learn from here and spread the knowledge new generation. Once a time I was a newbie, now become Legendary here through contributions only. So just follow others' advice and contribute to the forum.

The question is how the patience you are. Brilliant could make money even in a bear market and the panic seller just loses. Cryptocurrency is most popular due bear and bull game. Who could accept bear and accumulate more is the gainer. Holding 1 Bitcoin is worth always 1 Bitcoin, but you will lose when calculating in fiat. Here is the patience stands for. Who can use the bear advantage will be the gainer. That's the logic of becoming a profitable trader.

I thought Bitcoin was legal in Ukraine since a major part of cryptocurrency users are there. A few cryptocurrency statics shows a major part of the traffic coming from Ukraine. However, if there weren't illegal means there wasn't be prevention of using Bitcoin. But of course when people can use cryptocurrency more widely then it will be more popular there and a kind of adaption. Since the advisory board proposes cryptocurrency legalization means there is a 99% chance signed by the president. Thinking positive

The game of centralization and decentralization will remain the same, both sounds are conflicts. You know the business of the centralized bank, so there is the possibility of shutting down the centralized bank if they adapt decentralized Bitcoin. Yea, some banks allow Bitcoin and support it, but a major part of the centralized bank do not support it. Even some central banks like my country ban Bitcoin as an illegal asset. Bank will never allow you the become your own bank through Bitcoin. But they couldn't stop Bitcoin adaption ever.

Yea, likely rug pull. Dev. skip with the fund they raised. That's the reason why I am not much interested in brand new projects. They just come to the market to pull the money, nothing else. They use the most recent trends like currently, Metaverse trending on. So it's better to avoid brand new projects and choose some potential existing projects to buy on the dip. Sorry for your loss.

Guys, you come on the scam accusations section after getting a scam. But do not bother to read this section before putting your money into a scam site. 1xbit is a well-known scam, almost all users here know about this. But sadly you don't know. 1xbit does not care about forum reputation hence tagging them more is just useless since they got multiple tags on their profiles. Just be fair and search this board before putting your money on any gambling sites.
