81  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Two Kucoin Founders accused of violating anti-laundering laws etc. on: March 27, 2024, 10:05:57 AM
With concerns now, will the Kucoin exchange collapse?
The arrest of two founders and indictment of money laundering is a separate event and may not lead to harm to Kucoin’s investments, but accusing the platform itself of supporting money laundering may lead to its collapse.

The Ministry of Justice statement is as follows:

Quote
The US Department of Justice said in the indictment that KuCoin and its founders Chun Gan and Ke Tang ran KuCoin as a money transfer business with more than 30 million customers, but did not implement a know-your-customer (KYC) or anti-money laundering program until 2023 — and even then, it did not implement “Know Your Customer” program for existing customers. Neither Gan nor Tang have been arrested, the Justice Department said in a press release.

While it seems that the charges are related to non-compliance with the Know Your Customer (KYC) program or the anti-money laundering program until the year 2023, and even after its implementation, there was no seriousness in this, so I expect that if cooperation with the regulatory authorities is done and all KYC and exchange data provided, a judicial settlement may be reached.
82  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Commex exchange is shutting down its operation on: March 27, 2024, 09:52:48 AM
I remember mentioning the name of Commex when Binance wanted to leave the Russian market, and how Binance recommended users to move to it while giving them one year of safety for their assets. Therefore, it is unlikely that in less than a year they achieved losses, especially since we are in the stage of rising prices, and every platform, even if it has low liquidity volumes, will try to keep providing its services until the end of 2025, as it will be easy to attract new users due to the continuous rises in Bitcoin.

It is most likely that the stoppage is related to some regulatory restrictions or secret deals with Binance, especially since customer funds are safe even after May 10.
83  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Private miners, a ticket to getting faster transaction confirmations on: March 25, 2024, 11:18:49 AM
mempool.space will launch a bitcoin accelerator service, and its idea is close to what you are trying to say.

If you have a transaction with low fees, you can accelerate it with them and pay fees using on/off-chain methods, such as top up your account using bitcoin, paying through PayPay or your bank account, and speed up your transaction. I think they have a partnership with the Foundry USA mining pool, which has about 27% of the hashrate. Therefore, the chance that they will mine a block every hour is approximately an average of two blocks every hour. Therefore, your transaction with it will definitely has 1 confirmation whatever its fees were bad, on average, 30 minutes in the worst case.
84  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Staking Platforms - Best APY on: March 25, 2024, 11:06:13 AM
With the advent of cryptocurrencies, there are a lot of staking opportunities where one may stake their coins and earn consistent profits at the good rates while keeping their original investment safe. There are many centralized and decentralized platforms available for staking.
Staking POW coins using centralized exchange liken it to giving a loan to an unknown person whom you do not trust. He may repay you the loan with profits, but you may end up losing everything if he suddenly decides to disappear or declare bankruptcy.
If you want security and get a return, it is better to staking using POS protocols https://www.stakingrewards.com/ gives you a good overview of the currencies and the APY, and choosing a currency that may rise in the future may help you achieve a good profit.

BNB, SOL, ADA are currencies you can try.
85  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IslamCoin Project on: March 25, 2024, 10:57:02 AM
I am having a very strong Deja Vu with this thread, to be honest. If I am not wrong this OP has already opened a thread about this project of alternative currency which is supposed to comply with the Sharia law of the Muslim world or something like it.
In my personal opinion, I don't see the advantages of the project when compared to other more established alternative currencies like Ethereum and Litecoin, for example.

There is already a currency called Islamic Coin (ISLM) and its annual performance does not look good.



These projects try to exploit religious expressions to gain an injection at the beginning of the project and then it turns into any unknown altcoin.
We have Jesus Coin JESUS Christ Coin Shekel (JEW) and you will find many ideas, those scammers are creative.
86  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does number of traders affect volatility? on: March 25, 2024, 10:04:05 AM
The number is not important, but investments. If there were a million traders with amounts of $10 each, they would not have the same impact as 1,000 traders with $200,000 per trader. Therefore, if the traders’ investments were shy, they would not have an impact compared to the income of institutional investors who will move the price strongly and quickly. Investments are good, as retail investors may have an impact, especially since their trades are carried out on the spot-market, where the impact is immediate on the price compared to OTC for institutional investors.
The answer will vary and depend on the size of the investment, not the number of investors.

This is not true. Your service supports transferring between 5 blockchains for USDT, which are BNB, BSC (to be honest, I don’t know what the difference is between them) and ETH SOL TRX, but not 10.
The support team's response took more than 5 minutes.

88  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC dip again? on: March 24, 2024, 11:56:43 AM
buy bitcoin in despite its recent decline and I am wondering if will
bitcoin still go down to at least $50k?
wait for the price until it reaches an ideal price may not enable you to buy something, although it is possible to see $50k, but then you may think that the price may drop to $40k and that it is a good opportunity to buy more.

The failure of the price to collapse and the rapid rebound from the $62,000 may indicate that the price has begun to recover, and we may see slow growth, ignoring $70,000 more than $50,000.


89  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IslamCoin Project on: March 24, 2024, 11:43:28 AM
Adding religious terms to the currency does not make it valuable.
Without adding links to the project, the smart contract, whether it will be an independent blockchain or a token, you can add a lot of terms, but in the end the project is a scam.
90  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Kucoin becomes the first FIU-compliant global crypto exchange in India on: March 24, 2024, 11:04:18 AM
I thought that KuCoin and OKX both belonged to the same company or owner, and when OKX was announced to leave the Indian market, I expected KuCoin to follow suit, so obtaining approval from FIU-India seems surprising to me, as I assumed it was something OKX and Binance failed to do.
If Kucoin is approved, does this mean that we may hear the return of more exchanges and their approval, or is the government’s plan to maintain only one or two exchanges?
91  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ways to Research a Token/Coin on: March 24, 2024, 10:15:23 AM
There are no fixed criteria to say that token/crypto is good, but there are fixed criteria to judge it as scam or bad, such as a large amount of liquidity, developers owning most of that liquidity, lack of open source codes or continuous development, and the idea of the project is based  promises for fast profit. These are all reasons to stay away from the project.

To search for a good project, look for the following criteria:

  • limited supply or increases slightly and developers cannot control it.
  • Does not reach ATH unless you strongly believe in the project.
  • Clarify the idea of the project, that it be based on a serious solution and not promises of profits.
  • Continuous development, as there is activity on github, and it is best to wait several months to verify the activity.
  • Buying near support points or after a price correction as it represents the bottom for projects and the possibility that the price will decline further is unlikely.
92  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Bunny Loader ver 3.0 - most crypto wallets are being targeted on: March 24, 2024, 09:56:03 AM

Note: There may even be some malware (my speculation here) capable of determining the virtual keyboard being used, the screen/window size, and therefore perhaps being able to map mouse-click position to specific keys.
Yeah exactly and this is also used in mobiles as keyboard taps could be mapped .
I think there should be   some virtual keyboard that's  could be rearranged eveytime you feel like rearranging  the keys to confuse maps I think.....
Generally,  mallware sucks Tongue
If hackers can access and record screen data, then this is a complete failure of the system and closer to taking remote control of your phone or PC. Here, hackers can do anything just like admin account, but if we assume that malware was able to obtain such permissions, then detecting it will be easier, as recording and broadcasting the screen requires more data compared to Keylogger.

Some recent versions of virtual keyboard come with features such as data encryption, KeyShield protects from keystroke logging, screen logging, clipboard logging...etc.
93  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto remaining anonymous is good for Bitcoin! on: March 24, 2024, 09:42:32 AM
Even outside regulatory issues, Satoshi is better off anonymous because of political and idealistic reasons. Imagine if Satoshi was a Trump supporter — die-hard Biden fans would hate him, and vice versa. Same thing with the leftist and rightist movements.
We cannot say that Satoshi was far from politics, as the first message he chose for the Genesis block was “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on the brink of second bailout for banks.” Many of Satoshi's writings, although they do not clearly indicate political leanings, are that the ideas illustrate flaws in current financial systems, but in the end the network is decentralized, and if the founder's opinions affect the currency, it is not centralized. Charlie Lee sold a large portion of his holdings to Litecoin, and this currency still exists and has popularity.
94  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: New EU AML ban bitcoin anonymous payment on: March 23, 2024, 03:15:06 PM
And how exactly are they going to stop people? It is an anonymous deal, lol.
They target stores, digital stores, exchanges, and decentralized exchanges.
I don't know if the wallets will be in the same category, meaning that you need to complete identity verification to get a $10,000 transaction for your wallet, but their current focus will be on banning decentralized exchanges.
95  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Keterion.com - Send Bitcoin and more without fees on internal transactions!🌶️ on: March 23, 2024, 02:59:02 PM
You have conditions for depositing

Quote
Please note that every asset type has its minimum deposit.

And conditions for withdrawal

Quote
1% but not lower than 3 times the network fee

This means to have low service fees, the transactions must be small. Otherwise, if I decide to withdraw $10,000 from the service, this will cost me $100, while the average Bitcoin withdrawal fee is $32.64 (0.0005044 BTC), and most services have low fees. Such as Coinbase $3.44 OKX $3.24 MEXC $12.94 BUT you have minimum deposit amount.

You did not specify a network fee, so you can add additional fees to the network fee.

There can be on internal transactions but conversion rates between cryptocurrencies can be poor and networks like BSC are decentralized and the network/wtoken fees are less than $1.
96  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Spending extra to keep my assets out of trouble on: March 23, 2024, 02:43:41 PM
a token that need monthly swap to v2 upgrade is a token that deserves to be ignored, or at least not withdrawn, because this means that the old tokens may be invalid or may be burned soon.
Withdrawing tokens means that you stay informed of the news of the required updates and upgrades. Otherwise, you may be surprised that you do not carry valid tokens that you cannot spend, and then you will loss all your investment. creating a separate wallet for these tokens will enhance your security, or at least keep the main tokens in a hardware wallet and these tokens in several hot wallets.
97  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: New EU AML ban bitcoin anonymous payment on: March 23, 2024, 12:52:18 PM
It is still good that stores can accept payments in cryptocurrencies without KYC that are less than €3000.
Does this include coinJoin transactions? Daily transactions are less than €10k, as I can use P2P to exchange €9999 several times a day.
98  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto remaining anonymous is good for Bitcoin! on: March 23, 2024, 12:23:34 PM
Why were the same accusations not directed at Vitalik, Charlie Lee aka creator of Litecoin, or other founders of cryptocurrencies?
Satoshi cannot face major problems due to the decentralized nature of Bitcoin, such that if Satoshi decided, for example, to block a transaction in the network or allow the mining of more than 21 million Bitcoins, he would not be able to do so.
99  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to adjust your digital currency plan with new crypto tax proposal on: March 23, 2024, 12:03:07 PM
The government have the final say on this and if they are planning to lower the tax rate for crypto investors the better but if they are considering again to increase the rate and also restrict people from getting too much pressure, then they can do it in just a snap. The government regulations and policies are very important, and we should seek for it if we want to see this cryptomarket reaching another highs.
Tax cuts usually occur to popularize a certain thing, and the current trend of governments is either to ban cryptocurrencies or to deal with them with caution so that governments ensure tax compliance and reduce the risks of fraud and random investment. All of this will always make the cryptocurrency tax high and the possibility of reducing it less, especially since we are in the season of high markets and easy profits.
100  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to adjust your digital currency plan with new crypto tax proposal on: March 22, 2024, 02:22:50 PM
Traders will always try to pay the minimum possible tax, and if the possibility of claiming a tax exemption is closed if you sell the cryptocurrency for less than its purchase price, traders will try to look for other ways.
In general, no matter how high the taxes are, they will not affect long-term investment because you will pay them once after you have made a good profit, but their impact will be bad for traders and for altcoins, as many will prefer investing instead of trading, and Bitcoin will inevitably be the choice of most investors compared to altcoins.
