It is always interesting to read through the most recent attacks.

Some of those are disturbing. Although, without victim blaming, flashing the cash on Instagram or using your home address as company HQ probably wasn't the smartest idea.

Yes, I see the advantage of gold and silver in small amounts....The problem is, how do you transport one million of gold through an airport without being detected?
If you own a million $ and still find yourself in Venezuela or similar having to escape the authorities, you aren’t good at planning.

wow, that is crazy....

More reason to diversify your BTC or crypto into different wallets so one wallet doesn't look too big just for extra possible protection.

CZ and Binance just got sued by the SEC for the obvious.
The document details everything that has always been very clear to anybody willing to actually look.

"We are operating as a fucking unlicensed securities exchange in the USA bro.”

Full document here https://www.sec.gov/files/litigation/co ... 23-101.pdf

It's hard to think of a more wasteful use of energy.

yes, we know Gary Gensler is a liar who was in bed with Sam BankmanFraud who visited his SEC office on a regular basis.

the SEC and US government is trying to scare people away from crypto. It won't work in the long run. The cat is out of the bag. Too many countries are supporting crypto buying/selling. The USA can't shut it down.
