It depends on which hardware wallet you want to order - Ledger is from France, Trezor from the Czech Republic - and everything within the EU should be delivered within 7 working days, although it should be taken into account that shipments could be delayed due to all pandemic measures. Alternatively, you can check on the manufacturer's website to see if there are any official resellers in your country, which can significantly reduce delivery times.

Since you have in mind to invest a larger amount of money, the recommendations would definitely be to invest $50 + in a hardware wallet as it would be the safest and easiest thing to do. Of course, there is also the paper wallet option, but this is usually done with funds that you store for a long time - and the process itself is not easy if you want it to be made completely correctly and without risk. The third option is the so-called cold wallet - it means that you install a desktop wallet on a device that does not have an internet connection.

OP has a very bad history of offers for similar jobs - and now obviously looking for people to send spam emails. I don’t think anyone likes to receive such messages, so if he wants to send them, let him send them himself.

From the history of similar offers :

No one missed the opportunity to buy Bitcoin, there is enough for anyone who wants it at the moment. What people find hard to come to terms with is the fact that the price is now almost $50 000, and until a few months ago it was even 5 times lower.

How do you make a plan now that will fix the situation in terms of taking things back? I see only two options here - invest now regardless of the price and believe that the bull run will continue - or wait for a new big correction that should happen as every time so far - or maybe not.

As I see it the current situation is that Bitcoin is increasingly positioned as something that only the rich can afford (by which I mean some significant amounts), while the average Joe conflicts with the numbers in his head with how it is possible that his $100 can now buy only 0.002 BTC. Until Joe waits for a better opportunity, for the same amount of dollars he could soon get only 0.001 BTC...

Personally, I am not surprised by things like this, because apart from the fact that people are very forgetful, on the other hand, it is very easy to start all over again in the online world. Fortunately, there are people who expose things like this, and it's good for the public to know who is behind a project - and if everything in the OP is correct, then it's relatively easy to conclude how that project will end.


So it seems, only the name has changed - but the modus operandi has remained exactly the same - projects that promise a lot, and behind them are the same ones that ran ICO scams a few years ago.

I will not contradict others when they recommend a hardware wallet, it is one of the safest ways to keep our private keys in the most secure environment. All you have to do is save the backup in at least 2 or three copies in safe places (preferably different locations), and always check that any information on the screen of the device is identical to what we see in the user interface.


If you have no problem making KYC, Ledger gives you the option to trade directly through Ledger Live via Coinify exchange - but keep in mind that in that case the fees are probably a bit higher than in the case of Coinbase. Also pay attention to the list of countries where this exchange is available.

In this particular case, it is almost impossible to determine if someone is telling the truth, or if the whole story was fabricated with the intention of making a profit. When I hear that communication through the Telegram is involved in everything, I really doubt the truth of the whole story - because that platform has long since become a paradise for scammers.

I'm sure there are those who really need help, but most of them will never seek help this way - and we should also be aware that scammers are constantly finding new methods. I stopped using Telegram a long time ago, time is too precious to waste it on unknown people trying to deceive us in one way or another.

As you say yourself, it is 100% Trezor inside, and the only thing that is different is the design of the case which they claim was made of "aerospace grade titanium". You use that HW just like any other Trezor, and if you trust the Trezor, there's no reason to doubt the Corazon that was made in collaboration with Gray&Trezor.

The only small problem may be the price ranging from at least $1000 all the way up to $2000 for the gold version. In fact, the real question is not whether someone should trust this device - but whether it makes sense to pay so much for it.

This is the first time I've reported a ref link in that board without the mods deleting it - obviously this user has some special status that doesn't apply to everyone else. Personally, I think that this sends the wrong message to everyone else that we are not all equal on the forum.



It is not true that ABitBack does not benefit from giving 100% ref earnings back, because this faucet has a weekly lottery with very generous prizes, and every claim of his referral brings him a free ticket + rewards points which can be exchanged for various prizes. Furthermore, recently this faucet also offers tokens - and ABitBack uses a special ref link to earn extra money.

It seems that after the presented evidence, one of the mods decided to delete the entire thread instead of removing ref links.

I think the only way to protect ourselves in the future is a whole new approach to how we treat our personal information. Every day we can read that a database has been hacked and there are no more rules whether it is a lesser-known food ordering service or companies that, paradoxically, provide services related to online security. Just a few days ago, the news spread on the Internet that the largest database ever had been made public - and it contains as many as 3.2 billion records. Be sure to check that your information is also publicly available and take appropriate action to protect your online accounts.

Would you buy a hardware wallet just for the design? If you are really looking for something special, I suggest you visit this thread, and pay special attention to the Corazon which really has a very nice design but also a very nice price

and all others members, before giving advice, it would be wise to inform yourself, because the fact that a company operates in the US does not mean that its service is available in all federal states. OP is from NY, and binance.us is not available in that state.

The only correct question I would ask anyone who wonders if stablecoins are something trustworthy is to ask themselves if they believe in what actually back them. Often this is actually one big nothing, and digital printing of stablecoin is actually equal to printing fiat money which has reached incredible proportions these days.

But there is one very important difference between having $100 in your wallet and the same amount in stablecoin - this digital version of the coin can be frozen at any time, even if you keep it in a non-custodial wallet. I will say without a doubt that stablecoins are something far more dangerous than fiat and any cryptocurrency - but most people are not really aware of it at all.

@mk4 made a good review on this topic -> Most Stablecoins Can Be Frozen, Even in Your Own Wallets

Interesting for whom? For all those who pray every day for a correction to finally happen and for the price to be at least $10 000 again? I really thought people had learned at least something from the previous bull run, but one large percentage of people on this forum still believe that 2021 should be the same as 2018. It would be good to finally wake up and accept reality.


I think your only chance for a big correction is for everyone to come together and launch a petition that you will then send to Elon Musk and all other big investors - if they dump everything they bought, your wish will come true.

That man has the nickname Dr. Doom, so it's no wonder he thinks negatively about most things. I’m not sure if he announced a new major economic crisis, but I think I read something on the subject a few months ago. I started reading the article, but after reading the following I gave up - he is one of those living in the great delusion that Bitcoin is destroying planet Earth - which if we are to be honest is already so destroyed and devastated that some scientists say we have reached a point of which there is no going back.


There are people who generally do not understand what they are talking about, but there are also those who are paid to say exactly the kind of things that Dr. Doom has been preaching for years. There is no doubt that you can make very good money on such stories - Dr. Doom lives in a $5.5 million penthouse in an upscale part of New York City.

The referral link is hidden in this case with hyperlink, it is also more than obvious.


OP is start that thread with only one goal, collecting referrals - the context in which the ref link is posted is quite evident.


If this is some kind of rule or just a recommendation, then it is definitely applicable in this case.


Do the moderators see this thread as some kind of review of the faucet in question? Well this is one of the oldest faucet with probably hundreds of reviews posted, and I don’t see the OP making that thread to explain to anyone how that faucet works.

So anyone who puts a little effort into presenting their ref link can do it without a problem?

I know that mods tolerate ref links in posts in some parts of the forum (Gambling), but I wonder why no one wants to remove the ref link posted in Micro Earnings which more than obviously violate the forum rules? I reported this post 5 days ago with some other posts, but this is the only one that still stands unhandled


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5187738.0

As far as I know, all of these let's call them big players buy in the background via OTC and thus minimally affect the price. If Musk bought say 40 000 BTC, is that really a reason for the price to increase instantly by $10 000? I would say that it is not, and that the current price is the result of great news that only added new fuel to the existing FOMO.

Despite all the purchases that have taken place in the past 6-8 months, it should not be forgotten that there are probably millions of BTC for sale - some publicly on the crypto exchanges - and some via OTC which is obviously very well stocked, and it can still meet all needs.

Public opinion is largely based on the fact that miners produce only 900 BTC per day or only 27 000 per month which is actually a trifle compared to today’s demand - but it is completely ignored that many have started emptying their bags and slowly selling their coins making a profit while the price moving upwards.

In conclusion, I would say that there is still enough BTC for everyone who wants to buy it - and all those millions will not disappear overnight.

Some countries are extremely aggressive when it comes to protecting national currencies and see BTC as competition that needs to be suppressed in any way. Some other countries just want to protect their citizens from all possible scams that have become very common - because people do not want their government to interfere in such investments, but when they become victims of scams they seek help from state institutions.

A random look at the list set by the OP shows that more or less these countries are not very developed in terms of education, human rights and freedoms - so how do you expect them to accept something over which they have no complete control.

I don't expect that list to be shortened, because that would mean that most countries in the world think the same - and the world has never agreed and united on anything, so it won't on whether Bitcoin is good or bad.

Are you sure you would like to make a full KYC for a voucher worth $15 or $25?



I wouldn’t agree that a hardware wallet is the ultimate protection or as some would say bulletproof - you have hundreds of examples where users of such devices have lost their coins, either due to carelessness with backup or because they type their seed words in various fake wallets. If you don't know how to use something, it doesn't matter if it's a desktop/mobile or the best hardware wallet.

That site is definitely one of the worst when it comes to fee recommendations - I think it's written countless times on the forum. I visited that site and their recommendation is as follows "The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 102 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top.". At the same time I looked at the situation with mempool on this site : https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#0,24h, and if you look at Mempool Size In MB, currently it is enough to pay 40 sat/byte for confirmation in the next block.
