Must be a coincidence, never had these types of sms's or emails ever before regarding crypto. Was putting 2 and 2 together I guess. Started getting in crypto only end of last year. Trade Union being hacked with data leaks. Just panicked a bit.
For some reason they got my cell phone number and know I have a Luno account, I have never got one of these scam messages or emails ever. When the Trade Union here was hacked I have been getting scam emails and sms's weekly. I presume they have my bank records and details.
Has anyone else had...
I always send a small bit first when sending from a new wallet but its a lesson learnt, you will not make the mistake again.
PS: You will not get that crypto back if you sent it on the wrong blockchain. Its what makes crypto.. crypto. You are in control of the transaction no one else.
VALR has a number of coins but they still lack some good ones.
You will find some exchanges have certain coins and missing ones you want. So its good to be on multiple exchanges. Normally international exchanges have everything you want. I just use SA exchanges for cashing out.
Its tough one to judge if Russia will use BTC as a form of currency. Like China they do not want to give power to their people. BTC is power to the people since you are in charge of it no one else. Putin might dabble in BTC here and there for oil and what not but I do not think it will save the...
For me personally:
South Africa
1. VALR (more coins and slightly less fees)
2. LUNO (Very newb friendly but you pay for that convenience)
International
1. Gate.io (can choose what blockchain you want when sending)
2. Gemini (get 10 free sends per month and you can send funds to them via...
In my eyes anything below 40k US dollars for 1 Bitcoin is a good price. If you can get it lower even better. Looks like bitcoin is holding pretty well at the moment. Has not dropped below 33k low we had in January, came pretty close though. IMO soon as Bitcoin becomes regulated (mainly in the...
The bubble will pop with these colourful jpeg images that do not have well known artists. You can make huge amounts now but I think for the majority of us we are investors and in it for the long run. Acquiring well known NFT brands who have been around for many many years before NFT's and Crypto...
Great video, as much as I hate to admit it, a lot of what he says is true, however some of the stuff he says there is an argument for as well.
I work for an NFT based gaming company and can counter quite a bit of what he is saying. NFT's are more than a jpeg. Yes these Apes and lions are a...
Yes I still buy NFT's. I only go for the movies, comics, well known brands likes of comics rather than the colour monkeys or animals.
I have Star Wars, Coca Cola, Multiple comic books, Matrix, Adidas.
Yes I have been looking for a drop on SOL and it seems its here. Maybe not good for the peeps with big bags but for me its a good sign, I obviously want to buy at the lowest price possible.
Was listening to someone speak about SOL overtaking ETH in the next few years.
Agreed on that one, I am quite into gaming cryptos so Solana is right up my street. Hyped VALR will have it now, makes life a lot easier for me!
I have not got a bag on SOL yet, was waiting for the end of the month to get paid to swift to kraken but looks like now I can do it locally :)
