Alternatively, the uploader needs to make sure their image is not that large in the first place or re-save the image to reduce the size. I don't mind doing something like this if I need to upload images to the forum.

If OP also believes that he lacks the judgment to execute his trading strategy, maybe using a bot is not a bad idea. Then again he told too little to make meaningful suggestions specific to his context. On the other hand, running a bot and understanding technical analysis is also different. He definitely needs more than just clicking a "run" button if he wants to use a bot.
AFAIK most trading bots allow users to customize the settings. Unless OP uses a terrible bot on a terrible exchange, he should be able to set-up a cut-loss setting/trailing stop or something similar.

Really hard to persuade investors when you put so little info about your project. What's the name? How exactly will it work? What's the competitive advantage compared to other products if there is any? From what you've posted I see little to no reason for people to lend you their money.

Even if you can do a face-to-face meeting, how will it guarantee that you can pay their money back? Maybe build an MVP first before you start asking for investment. Even if you send an e-mail to a VC I doubt they will look at your project at the moment.

We can't really dismiss the issue though. Buying at the top is absolutely devastating regardless of what asset you buy. I do agree that Bitcoin will bounce back but people should prepare themselves if they plan to invest and not use it as a currency.

No need to take everything personally. His point is basically to improve your topics if you want to get noticed by other users and get merits to increase your rank. A topic like this usually ends up in the trash can since the discussion gets boring quickly. Besides, you make it on the Legal board which is not really the best place to post it, Do try to make it better, everyone starts from 0. Good luck.

1. I don't think they are available in my region. That being said, liquidating everything at once is impossible regardless of what exchange you use. The highest withdrawal amount that I can do at the moment is around $15k per day without submitting any documents. Probably higher if I want to get into trouble with the government.
2. Not sure how the ultra-wealthy do it, but if they live in my country there is no way they can cash out all at once as mentioned above. I doubt they want to sell them all at once in the first place.
3. That is likely even though my government tax agent is not as 'evil' as the IRS. I'm pretty sure most of wealthy users can get away after paying some tax and providing some documents though. The only way to avoid it is simply don't do it. You're just exposing yourself for no reason.

He's been promoting many scams in the past IIRC. It is kinda wild that it took this long until he got arrested, on livestream too. I don't think anyone familiar with the altcoin market thinks he is a good guy. Pump and dump aside his track record is really terrible. I won't be surprised if he paid people to follow or hype him up throughout the years. I heard he has more than 10 million on XRP but still asks for a donation (CMIIW). Hopefully, he'll pay enough to stop him from pulling some tricks when he gets released.

I've checked your website and you claims that the app has been downloaded 1k times or used by 1k users, but your Play Store statistic don't show the same thing. Where do the stats come from? Is there a beta app or something? Personally, I don't feel comfortable using an app from a developer that use fake apps.

I don't think we can help you directly. Maybe the only thing you can do is make noise on social media. I've seen similar threads about the same issue, not limited to Mercatox, and most of the time OP can only make threads on Reddit or Twitter. You can request help from popular accounts although the chance to get their notice is quite low. You can also try to make a scam accusation if the service you used has a presence on this forum, but if they don't give a damn about it then it can't be helped.

I wonder how long the platform will stay afloat until every token is purchased back. How would they ensure that nobody is abusing it by buying them cheaply from the P2P market or just hacking the smart contract? Seeing how they lost their money it doesn't give any confidence at all. It is really surprising how a platform that holds a hundred million dollars of money doesn't have a good security mechanism to protect its funds.

I believe the key reason is that they don't want to get into a debate with their customers to compensate for their lost funds. At least they are quite explicit about it. I can see their point, but it is kind of weird that they don't apply the same thing to fiat scams. Are scams that different there?

They do cite some reports that crypto scams increase quickly in the UK. If this is one of the reasons why the law becomes stricter and pushes exchanges away, one has to wonder whether this will encourage scammers to be more active through the "black market' or not. At the very least P2P should still be a good option regardless of how the law change. CMIIW.

I believe convenience and to some extent, privacy, are the key reasons why you want to use Bitcoin or crypto instead of fiat. A fee is quite relative too, some services have a lot of fees when you use fiat. Personally, I find it cheaper to use crypto directly since the difference in the payment method for services that I use is around 5% or so. At the end of the day, I guess you can say it depends on what service you need too.

How does the DAO model work though? How would you manage the data from the people that use your platform? Will the 'owner' have access to it, or if not, how far can they affect your project? Do they also have a say on what regulation the platform needs to follow? It sounds a bit contradictory when you want to follow regulations but claim your platform is decentralized by nature.

The author seems to see blockchain as a service similar to social media. That is inherently flawed. It would be a disaster if anyone could make transactions, while social media by nature needs people to visit them to function properly. Besides, what kind of monetization is he referring to when he wants to remove the fees to make transactions? Does he suggest blockchain projects sell their user data and collect their transaction history, basically becoming their own chain analysis project? That is insane. Might as well stick with fiat if people are fine with that.

I'd advise people not to do this. If my experience from two bull runs tells me anything, it is that holding your coins when the bull run is happening (especially near the end) is not a wise choice. I lose so many potential profits doing that. Sure, there is no way to exit at the perfect time, but making a plan to sell some of your cons when the bull run happens is better imo. Especially if you don't have that much capital to begin with.

In an ideal world that can be the case, but from how describe the law I don't think this is the thing that most people want. On the other hand, a clear law can also help people judge whether a law enforcement process is being abused or not, although I doubt this applies to the new law since there is no tool to monitor the process easily.

At the end of the day, I don't see how it can improve user's ability to recover their stolen funds from criminal activity. I can see why though, probably because the government doesn't want people to scam them too. But yeah, the best thing to do is be careful and prevent yourself from using scammy services or falling for a scam easily.

Not sure what you mean by "set to use layer 2 by default" when you mentioned about address type. What do you know about layer 2 btw? Maybe you're mixing things up here. When people mention layer 2, most of them refer to things like Lightning Network, Liquid, etc. It has nothing to do with legacy address or Bech32. CMIIW.

Emangnya QRIS mendukung kripto gan? Ane rasa masalah atau hambatan utama ya balik lagi ke larangan penggunaan kripto sebagai media pembayaran itu sendiri, bukan karena pengguna kripto ga tahu cara pakai kripto untuk bayar tagihan. Padahal teknisnya kan tetap sama, kirim koin/token ke alamat tertentu dan nunggu terkonfirmasi. Ane sendiri merasakan hal itu kalau mau transaksi di market lokal karena jarang banget yang support kripto (BTC aja jarang apalagi token" lainnya).

Agan dapat kesimpulan itu darimana? Apa ada rincian penggunaan dana hasil pajak untuk mengembangkan industri kripto lebih lanjut? Ane rasa banyak orang tidak ingin kena pajak, rata-rata membayar ya karena adanya sanksi itu sendiri. Kalaupun ada yang punya rasa sosial yang besar ane rasa hanya sedikit. Bahkan ane merasa untuk peminat kripto di pasar global malah banyak yang ga bahagia dengan keputusan-keputusan yang diambil oleh pemerintah mereka.

Ane rasa pintar atau bodoh ga ada hubungannya dengan risiko trading gan. Kalaupun dia pakai uang sendiri juga nasibnya bisa sama aja. Kalau agan bilang dia harusnya make uang curian untuk hal lain ane rasa udah beda topik lagi itu mah.

Sejauh yang ane tahu volatilitas kripto jauh lebih besar daripada forex. Kecuali agan mengasumsikan semuanya menggunakan leverage, khususnya forex karena pergerakan harga mata uang biasanya tidak seliar aset kripto. Tapi ya balik lagi kalau trading tanpa plan dan strategi ujungnya ya bakal sama saja. CMIIW.

Sudah dapat jawabannya om rico? Udah PM mod atau gimana gitu? Ane rasa juga sebaiknya diletakkan di Marketplace walau ga ada eksplisit yang membahas masalah scam. Kalau berkaca ke topik scam bounty misalnya yang letaknya di Altcoin, ane rasa ga ada masalah kalau topik semacam itu juga diletkakan di marketplace (walau sekilas baca sepertinya ga berkaitan langsung dengan kripto ya?). Hanya kalau jenis scamnya semacam wallet atau situs palsu mungkin bisa ke main board. Ane udah coba report ke mod, tinggal nunggu dipindah atau engga nanti.
