Shapeshift giving away $10 dollars?

[evoorhees]

It is a very funny promotion.

KeepKey ( price is $79.00 )

source: https://keepkey.myshopify.com/products/keepkey-the-simple-bitcoin-hardware-wallet

Trezor ( price is $65 )

source: https://trezor.io

People will need to have funds to trade

People will have to go through KYC which means handing over passport, income statements and proof of residence (In my country passport price is $60)

just to earn $10? I don't know if their marketing department believes this to be a good thing, but in my opinion I don't see it as a good thing.

• The goal of the promotion wasn't to get someone to buy a whole new hardware wallet, it was for those who already have one
• If you do want a KeepKey, you can use code "genesisfox" on Shopify to get 50% off (add coupon in the checkout process). https://keepkey.myshopify.com/
• You don't need passport, income statements, or proof of residence.  For US you need only name, phone number, last four of social, and address. For non-US you need that plus a scan of your driver license or passport.

Enjoy! Try it at beta.shapeshift.com

Lets say we do able to get that 50% off which is $39.5 for Keepkey,its still not worth to consider on and i do even doubt that kepkey users would
plan out to verify themselves just for that $10 giveaway.

Just a quick update here, Someone posted this one: Don't Believe ShapeShift's Trap. There is No Cheap Hardware Wallet!.

So the catch, you can buy the hardware wallet for $10 but the shipping fee is $38.

Oh well, who would have taught that there's no hidden trick here? Do you think that they are going to shoulder the shipping fee? Hell no.

And we don't know if there's someone who fall for their marketing trap, there are so many ways to to secure your coins here and hardware wallet such as trezor or ledger is the most notable one.

An additional promotional offer for people to get into KYC with their site. This is telling a lot about how Shapeshift is suffering from a terrible backlash of customers ever since they started requiring them to undergo KYC. And the worse thing is that they won't even use their own money for this promotional offer. They would get it from the customers themselves, by a subtle way of tricky padding on the shipping fee. It is unfortunate how this dependable site has become into.
