It is very important for us to be very careful the way make run transactions in a country where cryptocurrency is illegal. One need to take extra ordinary consciousness to use many of these ex image for p2p trade and this is a way where we can find so many forms of scamming because the government would not take any responsibility if anyone ever report the case of being scam through P2P method.
This kind of scamming where the buy would send fake alert to the seller is very rampard and we all need to take consciousness when dealing with an unknown person online. I have seen many cases where the buyer was claiming that he had paid the fund and begging the seller to release the coin without seeing any fund. Theybhave so many methods they use and we need to be aware of those methods or else, we might fall for there scam.
I can't believe that in a large city with a population of more than a million people you will not find a place where you can change cryptocurrency. And if this is a tourist city, then there are definitely no problems with this. There are a lot of scammers, and you do not need to work with the first ad that you find in instant messengers. There are so many cryptocurrency plugs but one need to be careful how they transact business because they can easily end up in the wrong hands and get scammed. I am referring to place or region when cryptocurrency is never legally official yet and this can make investing in cryptocurrency projects to be very scary with extra ordinary consciousness. 8f we live in a region where cryptocurrency is not regulated, we might find it hard to run transaction even if we uses exchange. Since the government would never come in to help and prosecute the offender for his attempt to scam, this could make it difficult for the scammed victim to complain to the police so the culprit can to arrested and prosecuted by law. We all hope tha Bitcoin would be universally accepted which will reduce scam. There are countries where people trust the police, and the police protect the interests of the people. A good example, although controversial: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5457086.0I live in a country where people don't trust the police and the police won't find scammers who will steal your cryptocurrency. In most cases, this cannot be done even in many countries. You refer to the law, but this law protects the interests of large companies in all countries. Not a single exchange has yet reimbursed a trader due to illegal blocking, because this cannot be proven and the trader himself agrees to this in the terms of use. |

Thanks for your instructions & responding. I was sick for few days and didn't check the forum. I have now sent an email to Nodal officers on Monday.
I contacted her only because I couldn't get any other contact info to reach out to. Banks aren't sharing any info except the complaint number. I have lodged a complaint with the nodal officers for my banks per your instruction but no response yet. Will wait & See.
Is there any way to avoid these scams and still make some profit on P2P Trades? Everything I earn goes into loans, mostly from relatives, that my father took and lost in business. With P2P I had some real hope of clearing that debt in a year and actually save something. But now all hope is gone.
Pls suggest any way to avoid such bank freezes? I am thinking getting a merchant account of Paytm or PhonePe. Because I have observed from the statement shared by girl who transferred me that they seem to ignore merchant payments. The girl who paid me got 5K on 16th May. From 16th May to 17th May She made multiple transactions of 150 (grocery), 2500 (jewellery) & 25000 (other user). After that, she paid me 17K. Still, cops skipped all 3 accounts and blocked only mine. Maybe the cops will see that the payment happened to a merchant account, assume it's for some purchase and not freeze such accounts? Any help pls.
Only spot trading on Indian Exchanges is the safest legal way. They will deduct the necessary TDS on trades. Also, since funds come from their account, you don't need to worry. There is no safe way to deal with P2P. The biggest problem being you never know about the identity of the other person, and the second is the TDS deduction. On a side note, P2P is the worst way trying to clear your debt, as you may end up losing even more money. Crypto is high-risk and must not be taken for granted. It is safe to trade on the exchange when you work in accordance with the laws of the country and pay taxes. Exchanges very often block traders' accounts and request a lot of documents on the origin of funds and tax returns. If you are not ready for such consequences, and do not know how to act, then this is also dangerous. |

And those who do not pay taxes, governments will confiscate cryptocurrencies. Although it looks impossible, many users store their coins in iPhones and laptops, which will transfer private keys. https://dailyhodl.com/2023/06/18/balaji-srinivasan-warns-apple-microsoft-or-google-could-help-government-seize-crypto-from-citizens/"In a new interview on the Impact Theory podcast, Balaji Srinivasan says that if G7 nations decide that digital asset seizure is allowed, then tech giants such as Apple, Microsoft and Google could lend them a hand. According to Srinivasan, a vocal Bitcoin (BTC) bull, countries may decide to seize digital assets in the future in an attempt to recover from economic turmoil. He says tech giants could easily scan our devices to find and hand over private keys to authorities if they were ever ordered to do so." |

I wonder how the FBI or exchange users got themselves to these unknown exchanges ,because I expected this to be with larger exchanges were liquidity is not a problem and they have a larger userbase...besides you can't hide behind a small exchange because all users are unique and they know the traits of each user and a person can easily be spotted! Btw wonder why these guys didn't simply use a mixer or something if they have the skills to do their illegally sh*t, guess not so smart after all  i'm sure they are all owned by one person, or a group of people all hosted on same server/account/dc. The FBI is doing a good job and this will help limit these kind of exchanges where stolen funds are used to exchange for other things. This will limit there expansion even the culprits behind the exchange would want to create another exchange to continue there business. This is not the first time this is happening, I have seen similar sites that was shot down by the security for some offense similar to this one. We hope to see the continuous fight against fraudsters and illegal exchanges. We can commend them, but they barely scratch the surface here in my opinion. There could still be hundreds of fly by night crypto exchanges around just being used by criminals or in the long run, going to scam their customers. We've seen this in the past and this is going to be a cat and mouse game. And definitely FBI are not going out full force if there is no American involved or at least this criminals are not operating inside the US, hence they might know this exchange for a long time and only makes a moved recently. Mixer services, exchange, cashing is a very big business in Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and other countries. Closing sites won't help here. A lot of people are ready to be drops for a small salary and there is no criminal liability for this. If in Europe and the USA it is difficult to cash out criminal money, then in these countries it is easy. All contacts are on the darknet forums, and sites are quickly restored. |

Prominent Nigerians and leading figures in the civil society had been calling for Emefiele's arrest and prosecution after he rolled out a "naira redesign policy" very close to the presidential election that led to massive cash shortages."
Those "Prominent Nigerians" are just like toothless bull dogs that can't organise themselves to challenge bad governance or they are all friends with the government benefitting from bad governance. They are all interested in having dip pockets from the government looking for different contracts and wouldn't find any alterations in the way government is going because of how the system has been made to benefit them. The whole point is that Nigeria runs a kind of government whether presidential or federal system but the president has superior power and controls the government to himself and also his political party (which is the ruling party) and therefore anything he says, decides or wish to allow to happen stays that way. So Godwin Emefiele can't take decision without the president vetting on it. Those going after him should also endeavour to go arrest the past president (Muhammad Buhari), he should not be exempted in that ordeal because he approved the policy ___
Will the main initiator of the CBDC or digital collar go to jail in Nigeria?
He already appealed his prosecution in court and I think legally he should be able to defend himself and bring in the past president into the picture . I wouldn't say that about the citizens of Nigeria. Nigeria attracts foreign investment and the leadership is forced to agree to certain conditions. Perhaps they did not understand the consequences, or perhaps they thought that it would be better for the country, or they had their own financial interest. But from a political point of view, this is a great achievement. Other countries do not arrest former central bankers. |

Пока 4.5 долларов за дот, но не может эта монета сильно упасть. Даже 2 доллара, это не такая просадка, как у тех, кто покупал по 20 и выше. Да уж, сильно я поспешил, купив DOT по 8$, он таки пошел тестировать поддержку 2020 года, которая как раз сформировалась на уровне 3,5-4 бакса. Не знаю, насколько вероятно падение ниже этой поддержки, старт торгов на бинансе с 2 баксов начинался, ниже, по-моему, уже конкретный обвал будет, без возможности дальнейшего восстановления. Вряд ли такое допустят. На бычке стреляют даже те криптовалюты, в которых нет фундаментала. Polkadot хоть и долго строящийся проект, но имеет очень сильную команду. На самом деле медвежий рынок хорошее время для разработки, полагаю команда сейчас как раз этим и занимается. Поэтому даже если монета опустилась ниже точки входа, главное уметь дождаться следующего цикла. Постарайтесь просто забыть о своих инвестициях минимум на год, а то и полтора. Тоже говорю о том что в экосистеме полькадот много разработок. Астар выкатил обновление 2.0 для улучшения взаимодействия между экосистемами эфириума и ДОТа. После кидалова от японских братишек на аукционе кусамы нет никакого доверия к астар... Да и вообще на кусаму все резко забили, а на полке что-то пилят, или делают вид что пилят... Говоря про еос, я говорил образно... Можно назвать другие проекты... Нем, хлм, нео... Все они были перспективными... Да сплыли...  Я уверен что дот уже на пути к такому же исходу... Кусама изначально планировалась как тестовая сеть, что проверять работоспособность и тестировать новые возможности. В сообществе Кусамы много много грамотных программистов и сообщество будет развиваться. Я думаю что ДОТ и Космос будут работать, в отличие от того, что было названо. У новых проектов децентрализацией не пахнет и близко, лучше эфириум использовать. |

Bulgaria is a very good compromise for Europeans. There is a flat tax of 10% and you keep the privileges of the European Union. The cost of living is very low, there are jobs in almost every European language in certain fields, and private property is not expensive. That's the choice my wife and I made, but it was made easier by the fact that we're flexible in terms of employment and have no real responsibilities other than ourselves, and that we've already lived in other countries that were more difficult in terms of integration and administration. What convinced me was the cost of electricity, which can be extremely low here with certain contracts, as I have a mining farm.
Slovenia was very pleasant, an incredible living environment, but the laws on taxation of cryptos are becoming disadvantageous, and it is undergoing too much Westernisation unfortunately.
Many people talk about Portugal, but personally, in all my calculations, I would have lost out there because the advantages were only temporary and for certain thresholds.
Bulgaria is not a country where it is so safe and comfortable. Many European countries are raising taxes. In Poland, the tax is already 19%, and in a year or a year and a half in European countries there will be almost the same tax. If you are satisfied with such a tax, then this is your choice. |

I don't fully agree with you pawel7777: although as western economic powers it is logical that they are similar in many aspects, and North-American cultural influence over Europe is undeniable (but let's don't forget that vice versa also), there are many economic, social and political conflicting interests between them, and that's the reason why the UK left the EU (Brexited), because their interests fit better with the Commonwealth's than with the Union's.
So I think that you are mixing things up, and if Binance's way is eventually blocked in Europe I don't think it will be due to the influence of the US.
Of course, different countries have different interests, but strong countries always have some power to impose their will onto weaker ones. The Russian-Ukraine war is a good example, it was obvious that Germany and France initially were pushing for peace talks and were hoping for things to return back to normal, but that wasn't in line with US's goals. To make their arguments more convincing, US blew up Nordstream 2 baltic pipe, sending a message to Germany that going back to old ways of buying gas from Russia is no longer an option. I'm not saying that Europe is totally controlled by the US, but it's undeniable that the US has been pretty effective in forcing their way in the most important issues. So the question is what's the real reason behind the crypto crackdown. i.e. if they decided that crypto is a major threat to their financial system, then they won't allow the crypto industry to just move and bloom in other countries. Plus, even without US pressure, other countries could come to the same conclusion and start seeing crypto as a threat. If Germany and France refuse the shower raw materials that they bought in Russia. If Germany refuses nuclear energy, then this indicates an imminent economic crisis in these countries. ___ Binance, SEC strike deal to keep US customer assets in country https://www.reuters.com/technology/urgent-binance-sec-strike-deal-move-all-us-customer-funds-wallet-keys-back-2023-06-17/___ Any deal or agreement is already at least a small chance for cooperation and the start of negotiations. Until criminal cases are opened, the parties to the conflict can find a compromise. |

But will Europe let CZ into its market?
<...> <...> <...> Binance loses footing in Europe as French prosecutors investigate exchange and Netherlands denies license application "On Friday, French newspaper Le Monde reported that prosecutors were investigating the company’s branch in France for violating the country’s anti–money-laundering laws. The investigation concerns Binance’s allegedly illegal operations as a digital assets provider as well as “aggravated money laundering,” a spokesperson for the SEJF, the French governmental agency responsible for investigating financial crimes, told Fortune in a statement. That same day, Binance announced that it was leaving the Netherlands after the Dutch regulatory agency did not approve the exchange’s application to become a VASP, or virtual asset services provider." The response from European regulators has been swift and such allegations will prevent the exchange from operating in Europe. News is not readable (it is paid) but I suppose that the headline is enough to understand what has happened. In Spain, Binance recently registered and got whitelisted by the Banco de España, but if they are starting to have problems in France (and the Netherlands) now, it does not bode well for when a single regulation for Europe is implemented. Still a long way to go, and things can change in the meantime, so uncertainty is high, but yes, a change in trend is intuited. This is the original in French https://www.lemonde.fr/pixels/article/2023/06/16/binance-principale-plate-forme-mondiale-d-echange-de-cryptomonnaies-visee-par-une-enquete-en-france_6177876_4408996.htmlOf course, if large countries in Europe begin to block Binance, then other countries will suspend the existing licenses of the exchange. Although the Binance exchange has a lot of money, they will not be able to fight with all the regulators in the US and Europe. |

Эти обменники просят указать ФИО.
Мне так же не понятно как это все работает. Я указываю ФИО дальше указываю BTC адрес и мне говорят куда подвести наличку?
Где ФИО? https://kingex.io/?locale=ru&cur_from=RFBUAH&cur_to=BTCВ России при получении перевода получатель видит такую информацию: получено 5600 рублей от Иванов Иванович И. Фио или номер карты просят для защиты от "треугольников", получатель и так увидит ваши реквизиты. После отправки гривен вам переведут биткоины на кошелек. https://www.bestchange.ru/raiffeisen-bank-uah-to-bitcoin.htmlЕсть обмены от 300 гривен, что меньше 10 долларов. Попробуйте. __ Для такого обмена сделайте счет в другом банке, ни при каких обстоятельствах не работайте с зарплатной, накопительной или пенсионной картой. Пополните деньги через банкомат, сделайте перевод с карты на реквизиты обменника. Через ВПН. Если в России вызывают в полицию, то говорят что "продал карту неизвестному лицу в телеграмм за 2000 рублей через закладку". Если не захотите менять через агрегаторы Бестчендж, Курсэксперт и другие, то для Бинанса и других обменов такая же схема с картой. Банк может вас заблокировать, но вы потеряйте 500 долларов, если не захотите идти в банк. Если у вас на карте будет пополнение и перевод, то с каждым переводом риск блока увеличивается. Карту нужно "греть", делать покупки, хотя бы мелкие в магазинах, чтобы это не было похоже на дропа. |

But will Europe let CZ into its market?
That's a big question. The US has a pretty big influence on most European countries, but it's not like they have complete control over them. And probably subject of crypto trading is not of any major strategic importance, so maybe they won't be expanding their crypto crack-down outside of the US. If I remember correctly, the most recent opinions of EU on crypto were not very friendly, and Binance had to block certain features for its UK customers (as well as well to stop supporting GBP deposits/withdrawals), so I'm not very optimistic here, but wish Binance all the best. At the last conference I watched, bankers and businessmen were talking about blockchain-based digital assets that have value. This will provide more opportunities for development and earnings. I don't fully agree with you pawel7777: although as western economic powers it is logical that they are similar in many aspects, and North-American cultural influence over Europe is undeniable (but let's don't forget that vice versa also), there are many economic, social and political conflicting interests between them, and that's the reason why the UK left the EU ( Brexited), because their interests fit better with the Commonwealth's than with the Union's. So I think that you are mixing things up, and if Binance's way is eventually blocked in Europe I don't think it will be due to the influence of the US. I'm very curious about the answer to zasad@'s question too, but we'll have to be patient until time tells and make decisions accordingly.

Introducing Astar 2.0https://medium.com/astar-network/introducing-astar-2-0-fb3015e96ba8"What is Astar 2.0 all about? Astar is evolving, and Astar 2.0 will impact all facets of our network, from tokenomics to governance structure. While 1.0 was all about building the underlying infrastructure and ensuring it’s secure, reliable, and battle-tested, Astar 2.0 focuses on getting us ready to deliver web3 to billions and further decentralizing Astar. 2.0 describes the future iteration of our network, as well as shows the direction we’re headed towards. A crucial part of Astar 2.0 is what we call Astar Link. Astar Link From the start, Astar has been combining multiple virtual machines enabling dApps to communicate with EVM and Substrate chains. With Astar Link, we’re going further to create a hybrid chain connecting all currently fragmented layers of the blockchain industry. We deeply believe that for the technology to succeed, we’ll need to create unified and seamless experiences for both users and developers. Astar Link will operate as a hub to enhance interoperability and be a marketplace for SDKs to improve builders' experience to onboard Rollups, Zero-Knowledge implementations, and other tools necessary for mass adoption."
