Related to PrimeXBT, is it like normal brokerages platform where you can lose more than you deposit?
Yes, according to the Fees page All investments involve risk, losses may exceed the principal invested. Then at this point it's better to use bitmex / binance and not risk someone coming after you for being involuntarily -$10,000 overnight. The "losses may exceed investment" scheme can be abused and involves HIGHLY relying on the exchange that they will close your position. |

In terms of ROI, GOOD JOB and congratulations. In terms of risk management, JESUS CHRIST, you would never do that with $20,000 account  What was your leverage? Related to PrimeXBT, is it like normal brokerages platform where you can lose more than you deposit? What made you think that the price would reach your point? Was it technical analysis or pure luck? |

I can bet that this thing is happening in other countries but people don't know about because it's not as public information.
What you said about salaries however I don't agree. Nurses are paid better in UK (about £30k depending on the location they live in, etc)
Remember there are 30,000 politicians in UK and 300,000 nurses so there is obviously less budget for that. If you take all politicians'
salaries you won't be able to add even £10-£15k to each nurse's salary.

My message to loycev Hi LoyceV, Just wanted to inform you that you and RHavar were right regarding MetaSafe ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5238941.0). After speaking with some cryptographers and good people, I understood that I was contributing to the problem. I would like to send you my personal apologies for having too much confidence in a topic where I taught I was understanding it very well. Thanks again for contributing, spending your prestigious time and reading about my topic. I will work towards deleting whatever is on metasafe's website right now and move its services towards something that is more useful. Regards, Cristianoff The highest contribution to advice was received from the Ethereum Ecosystem Support. Their main job is to provide feedback, direction, facilitate collaboration, connect projects working on the same topic, etc. You can read more about them here https://ecosystem.support/faq/Topic Closed. |

In UK the government approved "Investigatory Powers Act" which gives them power of mass surveillance of citizens. Since 2016 ISPs must now hold your data for a long time and GDPR rules ("pls delete my data", "can I see what data you hold about me?") do not apply In case you use a VPN and the ISP doesn't know what you searched on the internet, they will ask you to decrypt your data. If you can't, you face up to few years in jail or a heavy fine (unlimited fine so it can go in millions if you're a suspect drug dealer, etc). THE BEST PART? Politicians exempt themselves from this law (Is this country really a democracy? This was not voted by the people lol) https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/investigatory-powers-bill-a7447781.html |

I actually asked some people why they store funds on exchanges and these are the reasons: Haha well this would certainly be the place to post that information.
Also, do you store your seed phrases and private keys in a text document on your desktop?
This is not actually a problem if you are smart enough. Just use a random image (e.g family picture) and apply stenography or other encryption techniques to store that in the image. Nobody would ever suspect and this is actually safe as long as you keep your whole family history photos. No hacker is going to analyze your 10,000 pictures. Tips: use a photo where small children appear. There was a research where it was shown that lost wallets with a picture of a small child inside have 80% higher return rates. |

I have a lot of places to not put all eggs in one basket I have in my computer, in an old computer totally offline, in my smartphone, some small amount in exchange do to some trades and in a flash drive For me the best way to protect is to divide in a lot of places, this way is safer I also had 9.1 Ethereum in multiple places including: computer myetherwallet, metamask, trezor and exchange. Sold everything on 4/20/2020 and waiting to see if Ethereum falls back a little bit. |

Governments declare the value of cash and then we declare the value of bitcoin.
Are we the "followers"?  Theoretically speaking, with the stupid covid19 we've seen value of USD going down & also value of crypto following the same pattern. There are also many more factors involved in the price fluctuation and there is so much pressure on crypto "to gain value" so I would totally understand the reasons. An apple is not corrupted when a corrupt person buys it.
So deep and philosophic, straight into the feelings. How I see it is that what you said is valid as long as that person does not buy many apples and continues trading them. In other words, if he doesn't corrupt the "apple chain" then yes, your apple won't be corrupt. |

What if we replace the bank change the elites and the government with a revolution of power where we can become free at last.
As you said, utopia. Your anarchism of replacing everyone is funny lol They pay directly and are in government control
The problem is that there is no guarantee that this will not change and evolve in the future. As I said, poor monetary management can result in bad things happening. Think about Venezuela where the monetary policy got out of control they will have to prove that their centralized stuff is fraud proof and secure.
Sounds like a solution however I believe this won't be implemented (ever) because it destroys the overall "user experience" and make it more difficult "to join the system". |

Hey there, I come from a cybersecurity background so I have heard and seen many things From 1,000 Bitcoins stored on a hard drive (multiple wallets) we were forced to destroy to $100,000 of Ethereum in a hacker's self developed wallet that only God knows how to open. I think someone disassembled that wallet so it was not the easiest task to do. Those people are criminals most of the time but that's expected anyway. The worst case I have seen was a prostitution ring between Spain and UK where money would be transferred in crypto between two "almost bosses" which were trading girls. I would call them "lords of the ring". I believe there is an article in russian that I will try to find. One guy had his own hotel in the middle of nowhere and claimed to get "thousands of clients" paying in crypto. He was obviously putting his money into the system making it look like it was legit coming from other wallets. Unfortunately the guy was not smart enough to know about blockchain analysis so maybe that's why he was caught. It was before the crypto boom but you see that cryptocurrency is so appealing to criminals. We get then the real hackers, those masters who are difficult to catch and play every step extremely safe. I don't know anything about them yet other than: - They use monero, Zcash or other anonymous cryptocurrency to transfer crypto
- They always obfuscate their IP and leave almost no identity traces
- Something else that if I say, I'm really afraid it will help smaller criminals get away with stealing millions in crypto.
This thing really helps criminals hiding their identity to making it almost impossible to be caught.
It goes beyond monero and other safe crypto.

I'm a cryptocurrency fan and I use it almost weekly. I don't hodl and when the opportunity arises I use it,
however I want to ask one question on this most "extremist" (in good sense of the word) cryptocurrency
forum with the risk of getting hate
One of the biggest and most "worshipped" claims in the crypto world is that "banks print money out of air"
and a poor monetary policy can result in the fall of the currency.
Bitcoin maintains supply based on mathematics so "crypto is king".
Since banks can print money out of air and transfer that wealth created out of air to crypto therefore partially
corrupting the system, why do you still believe in crypto?

After discussing with different cryptographers and few members of the ethereum foundation I realized
I was following the wrong direction.
Soon MetaSafe will change for the better. I will close this topic as for now.
