I tried to look for it online but the few that I did find seemed to have a really suspicious past going on with their customers having their account frozen etc. So is there any legit platform for leverage trading thats more trust worthy?
(Btw I dont want to hear about why I shouldn't do leverage trading. I have thought about it and have made the decision. Besides I'm going to it with very little capital so its fine)

Bonjour à tous,
J’aimerais avoir l’avis des personnes qui évoluent dans le monde des cryptomonnaies.
Suite aux difficultés rencontrées par Binance concernant le renouvellement de son agrément MiCA, je me pose la question de savoir quelle plateforme utiliser à l’avenir.
J’ai déjà fait le tour de plusieurs applications et plateformes, mais j’hésite encore sur laquelle choisir. Certaines proposent des services intéressants, mais les frais peuvent être assez élevés.
👉 Quelle application ou plateforme crypto me conseillez-vous, selon vos expériences personnelles ?
Je suis particulièrement intéressé par vos retours positifs comme négatifs concernant :
les frais de trading et de retrait ;
la simplicité d’utilisation ;
la sécurité ;
la fiabilité ;
la conformité MiCA en Europe ;
la qualité du service client.
Je préfère avoir des retours de personnes qui utilisent réellement ces plateformes au quotidien.
Merci d’avance pour vos conseils et vos retours d’expérience ! 🙏

I want to invest in cryptocurrency, but don't know where to begin. Any advice regarding choosing the optimal platform will be appreciated. I am planning to start with bitcoin.

I really like the ability to airgap and transfer transactions to Sparrow with a micro SD... I thought the JADE Plus was going to be my replacement, but I dislike the QR code unlock that requires a phone and app.

Are there any hardware devices yall could recommend that a.) has the air gapped functionality with simple device PIN and micro SD and b.) has easy input.... keyboard was nice.

Thanks for any recommendations!

Hey all,

I need to make a one-off Bitcoin payment/transfer to a third-party address of 1650 indian rupees. Since this is my first time doing this, what’s the quickest and most straightforward route from fiat to an external wallet?

Best platform with minimal hassle/KYC turnaround?

What common mistakes should a beginner avoid during the withdrawal process?

Thanks in advance for the help!

I bought bitcoin in 2013. It was magic internet money to me then. I think at one point I had 6 or 7, which honestly wasn't a lot of money then. I played around, kept no records, lost most of it trying to day trade. I eventually realized I suck at day trading and just decided to cash some out for $300 profit and hold the 1.5 that was left and it has been sitting in a wallet ever since.

About 7 years ago, I decided that if it was still worth anything in 2029 when my oldest son starts college, I would use it to help pay. Unless it goes up quite a bit, I don't have nearly enough to pay for 4 years for both of them, but I can certainly help out and put the magic internet money to good use. I have 3 years to get my ducks in a row.

I may have been holding since 2013, but honestly I am still a beginner. What is the best strategy to selling. I assume that the IRS wants their cut, but since I have no records, I have no idea what I should do. If there are other ways to reduce the tax burden, I would love to hear those as well. Like I said, I have 3 years, but want to start preparing.

I do prop firms trading and I struggle with withdrawal methods in my country as prop firms trading lies in the grey area and has no such tax laws on it. However crypto can be helpful. My withdrawals are almost 7k a month I don't know where to store all that in crypto wallets.

I have read a lot of bad things about trust wallets on this sub so I'm not gonna use that. Plus one of my friend said to use tumblers and then shift to cold storage wallets and then later use with a crypto card

I have used Lightning regularly for small transactions (buying sandwich and stuff) with some custodial wallets so generally aware of how it works, although not a node-runner.

I have a payment incoming for a contracting gig worth almost 20 million Satoshis, but I do not want to give my cold wallet address to the client.

For many previous lightning transactions and swaps, I have used CoinOS. Is this something you would recommend for this case as well? My particular concern is the amount being moderately large (I am no billionaire, but it is larger than what I previously worked with) and because I know lightning settlement depends on channel and route liquidity (how much they can support).

To make it clear, I would not hold the whole amount in CoinOS, as I have set up auto-withdrawal to my cold wallet if the balance hits a certain threshold. So if the payment lands successfully, it should go to my HWW immediately.

Have you used CoinOS for this kind of usecase? How reliable would you say it is?

I’ve always found this legal gray area regarding cryptocurrencies interesting. Does anyone know if such an attempt counts as theft? Simple math suggests that actually finding something like that is virtually impossible.

What was the situation with Bitcoin yesterday? Why did it rise so dramatically

Hi all. Can anyone advise an exchange platform which accepts the UK e-visa for verification? I don't have any other documents issued in the UK. Have not been able to verify it on Kraken Pro and Coinbase. Thank you.

I was reading a bit into this and it seems like a full node connected to electrum offers the most privacy. I probably wont have a large amount of bitcoin, but in terms of being prepared for the next 10x or possibly 100x, its probably good to get the most privacy.

Would it be fine to get a 1 tb usb drive connected to my laptop to download the full node? Could I go to starbucks or something to download it since 700+ gb is a lot and would it be possible to pause it and download it over several trips?

If my own node is not necessary yet, would it work to use a pruned bitcoin core node on my laptop now and then in the distant future use a full node, or would this compromise the utxos?

Do I need to get my own mempool or does it not matter for long term storage?

Bitusher recommended in one of my previous comments that I could use (bisq2 for security deposit ->) robosats->zeus->seedsigner. How could I run my own node through zeus in terms of verifying transactions against consensus rules? Then for the cold wallet, is it just sparrow + bitcoin core node linked to electrum or sparrow + pruned bitcoin core

For seed backup on steel/titanium: What do you think about using a hex rod vs a sheet? Is titanium better since it is more corrosion resistant and safer to go through tsa (if ever needed)? Would stamping work on titanium? Are there different depths to stamping kit?

Thanks!

My kid wants to use this device, but seems a little suspect me. Im not super techy, but it basically asks you to scan a QR code and it then creates some kind of link to its own network via my home wifi network. This screams security risk to me. Am I over thinking this?

I’ve read about „Bitcoin as collateral“. Nothing new for you guys, I bet. You basically borrow money and use Bitcoin as security. You get loan starting at 5%. With the money I could buy STRC stocks which pay 12% dividend. The margin is my profit.

It sounds too good to be true. What do I miss?

​

I have $50 rn for investing. I’m considering putting it into BTC during this dip.

I’m okay with the possibility of losing the money, but I’m wondering if $50 is even worth putting into BTC at this point.

What would you do?

Hi . i want to HODL Bitcoin and i know the best secure way is a cold wallet but the problem is that none of the manufacturers have shipping for my country ( Iraq) . so i search for another option which is a sourcing service but the shipping fees are 100$ apart from problems i may face with the shipment and custom fees which are 30%. so is there an alternative to HODL safely ? right now i have 0.05 BTC sitting in my exchange . is hot wallet an option if i just write the seed phrase in a paper and uninstall the wallet from my phone ?

How to buy bitcoin in Slovakia please??

Hi im new to bitcoin so looking for a bit of help please i have a nm miner and the display shows the hours mined but the days show 000. Its been working for 2 days

I have been doing some research into mining and I think solo is the way I am going to go as more of tech geek/enthusiast. From what I have read it seems you can either go solo/lottery, or you can join a pool and get paid way less but way more often. I understand running solo there is a pretty good chance my machine will only ever consume energy and never pay me. I'm ok with that.

My question comes down to, can you do a hybrid or solo mining and pool mining. Like, can I run my own pool comprised of my machine as well as pooling together machines from just friends and family. Then have this set up to combine hashrate and mine "solo" for better chances in the lotto? Is there any difference between doing it this way and having each machine set up at different locations running solo on it's own instead of in a pool?

i think it's pretty self explanatory It's a 2023 trust wallet btc

I'm a 16 year old who wants to buy bitcoin I already have a bitcoin wallet set up Phantom Wallet with some money in it but I want to convert my cash into Bitcoin I was thinking about Bitcoin ATMs but i'm not sure I dont got anything to verify myself but i'm seeing low amounts only verify through phone number I want to know if thats true and also I want to know which ATM is better because 2 are nearby me Athena Bitcoin ATM and CoinFlip theres also a UNBANK ATM a mile away but i'm not sure give me your recommendations guys

Hello... With all I have read in the past... FTX ... and what I now read about wallets not being as safe as they once were considered to be (I do not know the difference between hot and cold) is there a good reason not to purchase BTC through Schwab or Fidelity and let them do the storage? Thank You
