I suppose @OP was referring to the trading fees (not to spend). Let's imagine him converting his fortune ($175 billion) to bitcoins with a 0.15% FX fee, that would be $~250 million Buy from me, Jeff!!!

Amazon capitalized mainly on people's purchasing habits which changed when they turned to e-commerce during the stay at home order (without considering AWS and subscribers). Now the company is surely hoping the habits become permanent

As far as I know, nope you can't. The account receiving the code needs to be located in the same country. However, you can live in the UK and buy something (if eligible, not everything) from the Amazon.com platform (with the same account credential) with AmazonGlobal. I have already bought on Amazon.de while I have Amazon.fr Amazon.co.uk Gift Cards can only be redeemed on Amazon.co.uk. To redeem on other Amazon websites, you can purchase gift cards on the respective sites
According to the Amazon.com gift card terms and conditions, an Amazon.com gift card is only redeemable toward the purchase of products on Amazon.com. Similarly, an Amazon.co.uk gift card is only redeemable on the Amazon.co.uk website. ... So you cannot use an Amazon.com gift card on one of their international websites.

I took the USA as an example since the elections are coming soon, so the example is more obvious. I could have taken my country too (or another) knowing that the elections are coming in 1-2 years. What I meant to say is that the argument is valid for any country where the president would seek to be elected again. I don't know in which you live but, what did your government do especially for the economy? Certainly like many other countries where the central bank has (still) printed banknotes. But you will have to pay this money since it doesn't come out of the sky. How is your government going to do it? Raise taxes, reduce subsidies, which means that your citizens will have less aid, less purchasing power, etc. The middle class is really going to suffer. It's a matter of weeks. I'm a total idiot by the way, I should have bought more gold, the good news is I can only blame myself. As @extasie say, we can't see the results immediately, personally I think we will have to wait maybe 2 or 3 years to make our own opinion. Also, I don't know what you mean when you say that the world is "joining together", using new technologies (which tech do you think about?). On the contrary, countries are "fighting" each other. Between some countries that steal masks from each other was a very good example. Or in Europe, where countries are fighting over who will pay for the masks. (great European Union by the way)

Paypal is known because you can make an account and make money transactions with just an email.
You have to be verified so that you can spend the money that was transferred to you and that means you are required to submit additional information. We only ask you for essential information when you sign up to PayPal, but as you transact with us we're under a legal obligation to know more about you. When you verify your account you're proving that you own the financial details added to your account.
To get verified, go to your account to add and confirm your bank account or, if you prefer, add and confirm your debit or credit card. It's still unknown how they will integrate crypto with their business. Not even true, you're twisting a potential problem @Naida_BR was talking about, and making it unrelated. You don't need to be verified to spend the money you received. Being unverified you can of course spend it as you wish at any merchant. And the method you posted doesn't even ask additional information by the way. When you link your bank account or debit card, you receive a code on your bank statement. And you need to copy the code to your Paypal account. Is that what you're calling submitting additional information ?!?

If the economy is protected why are there several companies announcing either bankrupt or lay off thousands of people
Well, that's the cost. You can look at this either the good way or the bad way. The economy is a big picture and you can not judge it with a few people within. Just wait and see how the world will fight against this crisis. remember that after every crisis, the world always becomes a better place with new tech, new markets, and new ways of living. People always evolve, not in their physical body but in their mindset According to Guardian: "About 100,000 small businesses are projected to have permanently shut their doors since the coronavirus outbreak was declared in March, according to a new study from economists at the University of Illinois, Harvard University and the University of Chicago.[...] there are about 30.2m small businesses in the US, of which 5.9m actually have employees. So although 100,000 firms going out of business is a sad thing, it could be considered a relatively small number – 0.3% of all businesses, or less than 2% of all employer-owned firms"
Yes, sure the cost as you say. The cost at the expense of citizens but for the benefit of businesses. The same companies that received billions in state aid recently and a week later announce massive layoffs, despite the fact that the benefits are still there for some, even increasing compared to 2019. How crazy is that economic policy? So it's like saying, the government takes your money to give it to companies and once they got your money they fire people. What a wonderful state Where will all this money come from, but above all who will have to pay? It's still us the citizens, when governments will have no choice but to raise taxes. Of course, that will not happen soon, probably in two or three years, I don't know. For example, in the USA, they are not crazy enough to raise taxes in the run-up to the presidential elections. It will be done afterward to avoid that the people turn away from a positive vote... I know in Europe they are thinking about a new tax for GAFA and also to tax polluting countries on their imports such as China for example. What's going to happen? Some products will increase, China is not going to bother with that. Who will pay for this increase? Us, again. The global economy prepares for the worst recession, with more than 10% for some countries, To compare in 2008-2009, the world recession considered the worst was 0.1% (if I'm correct on the numbers).

It doesn't show Bitcoin as a deposit and withdraw funds option https://www.exness.uk/deposit_operations/I haven't see unlimited leverage, the highest was 30 IIRC. Not sure what tip are you looking specifically, CFD on FX is considered very risky and a lot of people jump on it without understand the product 71.67% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider.

Nope, there is no way to check it. It's been a long time since I've done this, but before you could check the validity of the code before adding it to your account (so you could have made a screenshot showing it's valid before selling it and the buyer couldn't have said otherwise).
And there's no point in contacting Amazon to ask them because they won't be able to give you an answer (unless you report it to the police)... They will tell you they're not responsible for codes stolen, lost, etc...
However, the country is easy to guess, if it's a .com voucher it can only be used in The US, a .fr voucher can only be used in France and so on. (You can not buy an Amazon.com voucher and use it on Amazon.fr if I'm correct)

What additional information would I need to open an account? Users could use their email as well to make a BTC transaction, (without asking for anything else, it's not something so difficult to add). In the same way, you can send or receive different currencies with the same email. Even if Paypal asks for additional information (imagine something related to BTC, an address, or whatever) the company cannot force people if they are not planning to use Bitcoin. It's really not something that would cause Paypal to lose customers.

And the purpose of this thread is.... what? We all know about nexo and many other platforms.
Easy to guess if you check his/her posts history. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2759773;sa=showPostsYou'll notice that the user always and only talks about Nexo all the time. It's a flag showing that this person is part of the staff or is paid to promote/spam the platform. It's up to you if you see it as a red or green pill. Personally I don't really like disguised promotion (I'd prefer to make it clear at the beginning and not discovering myself after digging). and it even tends to make me avoid the service.

Excuse me but I have no idea who with a sain brain would be willing to send near $20k to someone relatively new to the forum with only 2 comments. Would you do it yourself?
You come from nowhere, are unknow and promise a +200% ROI, of course, without guarantee you will come back in 2 months
Santa Claus doesn't exist as you (maybe) know

In addition to that, I really like the new "Bitrefill Rewards" feature. I got some nice cash-back today and used it on my second gift card. Do you have any problem using a gift card? Last week, I received a gift card through an offer, for only $ 10, I received the gift card code through my mail. It is an amazon gift card, I create a new account, then use it. The problem is that my account was banned immediately upon making an order It was strange. I did not even have a chance to appeal. Usually, I will be asked to send proof to prove it is my gift card. But no, they just said that my account was banned due to suspicious activity and didn't have any items to appeal I ignored it because it was only 10 dollars. What do you think of the gift card from the offer? Isn't it good? It's something happening frequently with Amazon, I even remember a topic not long ago with the same problem as you with Bitrefill. Try to contact Bitrefill to explain, the guy was able to recover his account and gift card after doing it. A similar story happened to me too after using a Visa gift card, they were dumb enough to ask me a bank statement from the previous month and showing the card numbers

OK, 3-4 days ago they published this page on the FAQ We are able to offer a competitive interest rate to users who deposit and hold bitcoin with us. We do this by lending bitcoin deposits out to selected, rigorously vetted institutional and/or sophisticated borrowers who have established track records at a slightly higher rate What are they calling "institutional and/or sophisticated borrowers" and "established track records"? 1)Track records from? 2)Why institutional borrowers would use this platform to borrow while there are more established services doing it (better)? On the screenshot posted by @OmegaStarScream earlier it seems everyone (verified I suppose) is able to borrow money (See the "borrow" tab). Or he's an institutional and sophisticated borrower. 3) How are they "selecting" borrowers? Are they really lending money, I start to wonder 4)With this feature, aren't they supposed to have either a license or regulated from abcd, since it starts to look more similar to a financial institution? I mean something like Nexo.io, it's regulated

I'm not surprised the Australian post office started accepting bitcoin, because Australia is a country that is friendly with crypto. This is really positive news for cryptocurrency. More and more countries are starting to adopt bitcoin, to my knowledge there are several countries in Europe that are do the same thing as australia. But I forgot the name of the country.
Nobody is reading the discussion or visit the link posted in the original post or what? As @Lucius mentioned they do not accept Bitcoin! It's about citizens able to buy Bitcoin (using their local money). And the fact people can buy bitcoins doesn't make a country crypto-friendly as several users say here. Crazy people, as soon bitcoins can be bought or used they think the country is friendly to BTC. For sure we don't have the same definition for something friendly Nowhere does it say that people can pay for their stamps in BTC. Only people here believe that.

Salut. C'est pas Coinbase que tu aurais dû contacter mais plutôt le site ou tu l'as envoyé. Cela peut être tout simplement un problème technique de leur côté tel que la sync' qui ne se fait pas, ou leur wallet en maintenance, ou je ne sais quoi d'autre. A mon avis tu devrais plutôt chercher de ce coté la.
Considérant que ton site est "de confiance" tu n'as pas grande inquiétude à avoir, ça arrive à plein de sites de temps à autre ce genre de problème

LOL. It's because you use shit platforms good for newbies. It exists for a long time in the crypto industry. Kraken, for example, has always had different orders types. Just to let you know these are basic options for a trading platform. Crypto trading is enough comprehensible to be reachable to every trader. If not then it's not a trader at all Therefore, new traders must start learning and experimenting in order to gain sufficient experience.
Yes, sure but if a trader doesn't know the different order types I believe 1) he shouldn't trade anything 2)he isn't trader 3) he should go back to the books to learn the basics.

I don't need any chart to conclude we're in one of the biggest crises and contrary to what you say, I don't think it can be said at any point we're coming out of this stronger than before. We're not recovering everything, we're at the beginning of a terrible crisis.
Wait for September and you will see what I mean. We will need several months to see the result and if the lockdown ended it doesn't mean everything is back to normal
Protecting the economy by printing money backed on debt? Are you sure it's something protecting? If the economy is protected why are there several companies announcing either bankrupt or lay off thousands of people

It's extremely difficult to be profitable unless you have a huge member base and that's exactly why most faucets disappear. It's also better to monetize the ads spaces yourself instead to rely on an Ads network.
Since faucets are less profitable, they're less popular, taking a lot of energy to market the website for a little reward. The ratio effort/reward isn't very attractive.

I suppose the user received a ban temporarily. And he/she comes back today for...... ... Guess what ?!?!? Shiting again! He clearly isn't interested to follow the standards and to learn how things work in the forum. Throwing a link is all that matter example: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5258561.0

Hello, you can arrange some reliable gambling websites for community members to use, similar to the list of mixers
No thanks, not interesting. I don't know anything about this type of site since I'm not interested in gambles/casinos, and don't plan to be. (I'm Christian) You can do it yourself if you want

It's simple. A Future contract is basically when buy/sell a currency (or something else) at a predetermined price on a selected date in the future.
- Quarterly Futures contract => expires after a 3 months period (4 quarters per year, 1 quarter=3months) - Perpetual Futures => it does not have an expiry date unlike traditional forms of futures contracts. It can be perpetual
