They've a way of exploiting virtual cameras to bypass KYC and one of such ways is the use of AI assisted tool known as deepfake, which was touched upon in the article.
There is also another AI tool "OnlyFake" [1], it seems to be a complete package tool to help pass verification up to VIP 100x level. OKX exchange is one of the “victims” of this tool. Unfortunately I haven't found the official site of this tool, I think they were taken down or actually don't operate on sruface web. 404 Media reported on Feb. 5 that it successfully bypassed the KYC verification of crypto exchange OKX using a photo of a British passport the outlet generated with the site, where the ID appeared to be laid on a bedsheet as if a picture of it was taken. 1. https://cointelegraph.com/news/ai-generated-fake-ids-pass-crypto-exchange-kyc-onlyfake

If that news is not made by mistake, it is probably fake news from the wrong site because I'm sure the author must know it before publishing.
It's not fake, as I said before, this news does not highlight the functionality of a wallet. If the author had taken the example of TrustWallet instead of Metamask, it might have been somewhat relevant. I checked my TW recently, the Transak widget is really integrated to exchange fiat to btc (and vice versa) directly in the wallet with visa cards. And in fact, Transak is not an exclusive service. There are several similar payment processing brands before such as Moonpay, Mercuryo, Banxa, etc.

don’t think because you are in your comfort zone makes you feel better
It doesn't matter if you stay in your comfort zone as long as you enjoy it. Personal satisfaction is the core goal, there is no competition to be the best. Dissatisfaction is close to greed, it can lead you to destruction. Reaching the next level of wealth will come with greater challenges and risks that you may not be able to predict. Especially in trading, this is more about mental risk which is different for every leverage you use regardless of whether you use the same analysis method.

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) in the US is an example of such a move.
That applies to DEXs specifically that qualify as "money transmitters", this is the key word. “The developer of a Dapp is not a money transmitter for the act of creating the application, even if the purpose of the Dapp is to issue a Convertible Virtual Currency (CVC) or otherwise facilitate financial activities denominated in CVC. However, if the developer of the Dapp uses or deploys it to engage in money transmission, then the developer will qualify as a money transmitter under the BSA.” The problem is, there are some exchanges out there that claim to be "DEX" but have CEX capabilities such as confiscating users' money.

So, is it safe for me to store my coin there or is there any other wallet I can use to store my coins? I know of electronum but apart from the electronum is there any other wallet which is safe?.
Electrum is safe if you have good security and privacy literacy. In this case, you're still relying on the help of others to buy your bitcoins which means you need to learn more about how bitcoin works. What do you plan to do with your $110 bitcoin stash anyway? I think you don't need to look for the safest external wallet if in the next 1 or 2 weeks you want to cash it out in case its value increases.

The context of the news is the Visa x Transak collaboration (on/off ramp payment widget) which in fact can be implemented into several crypto wallets that support real BTC like Ledger, Trustwallet, CB wallet, and many moer. So, the news writer just didn't choose the right sentence to give an example of a crypto and a wallet where the two aren't related.

Apa yang saya lihat dari konsep Keraton Solo menucurkan token kripto nya itu masih kurang menarik apalagi dengan ekosistem yang di kembangkan masih sangat minim, sedangkan Keraton Solo ingin di kenal di kancah global maka ini akan kurang daya tarik investor untuk beli token tersebut, apalagi sekarang banyak gempuran token atau proyek baru yang berdatangan dengan ekosistem yang lebih luas yang sedang tren saat ini apalagi dengan menawarkan L1 dan L2 yang sedang hype, maka jika hanya itu saja konsep seperti ekosistem Keraton Solo akan kurang di minati.
Betul, dan saya rasa mudah ditebak polanya, tidak lain "orang-orang" lama yang memanfaatkan popularitas tokoh minim literasi kripto untuk memboost eksposur token baru ini. Sayang sekali, tampaknya kali ini bahkan gagal diawal dibandingkan dulu yang suka memanfaatkan artis-artis. Baru saja melihat-lihat websitenya, mau dibilang token utilitas tapi tidak ada semacam pembagian keuntungan bagi holders secara langsung. Karena hasil keuntungan keraton dialokasikan ke liquidity pool, kesimpulan saya selain diperdangkan di bursa, token ini tidak memiliki fungsi (useless).

Btw, i think i saw somewhere that you have how to make a physical and offline wallet Yeah, speaking of the type of device with the highest security, airgapped devices should be the safest and they can be used as primary asset storage. Since you prefer mobile, I found open source software that allows your unused android/iphone to become an offline wallet. Read the review here if you're interested https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5342004.0. Or if you have a lot of bitcoin (say 1 BTC or more), you should be able to afford a dedicated hardware wallet. https://thebitcoinhole.com/hardware-wallets

Im gonna install it on my phone and give a try.
Well, go ahead. Read the text under my avatar. It's a good idea to first learn more about the technical side of Bitcoin, especially choosing the most risky and recommended devices for wallets, how to store keys safely. All the links provided by Potato Chips are very good for you. Don't rush for great changes. I assume you're still in the early stages of becoming your own bank.

Recommended address which is: - You own the private key/seed phrase.
- Not the main address where you hold the majority of your bitcoin portfolio.
- It isn't a known address belonging to a banned user

This going to sound idiotic to you but how do I get this address?
Absolutely sound idiotic, if you have funded your address before and used electrum, then you should know where you got your address(es) in electrum. Is your wallet funded and what wallet was it (before this one)? And what does "wallet shows empty" mean, you don't see your balances or addresses?

If i send BTC to get USDT in ETH Network i pay the ETH Fees and the regular 0,5 - 1% fees but i pay more to fixedfloat, i pay also fees for BTC but why?
Have you ever tried it? The general swap practice is to take fees (network and services) from the coins you own, which in your case is bitcoin. You'll not be charged any more fees in ETH because you're a USDT (erc20) recipient. Fixedfloat is a bot but they're centralized, so they may charge higher fees than the network recommends.
I just checked my old safepal wallet, apparently they've been connected to some other exchanges like Bingx and Mexc to use their swap feature without KYC. The service fee is only a flat 0.2%, excluding network fees (out-in).

now I try fixedfloat but 1% fees is too much, There is a 2nd option there, 0.5% where the amount you'll receive will depend on fluctuations, it will be like a market order in the spot market. and I also don't understand when I exchange BTC why they charge 30 USD but I'm the one sending the BTC! ?
Who do you think should pay the fees and who should receive them?

Please confirm, is the link attached in the OP correct? because it leads to blackppage.app and it doesn't load anything (unless you mean I have to use the Tor browser to access it), whereas blackpage.app works fine but the page looks different from your screenshot.
