The irony of this sentence is not lost on me.

It is written in the Genesis block:

This is one of the fundamentals of Bitcoin, if not the biggest one - an alternative monetary system to fractional reserve banking.

At the very least, itโ€™s nice to see Bitcoin not act as a risk-on asset that just correlates with the Tradfi.

These insights are nice in a bull phase, pretty psychologically challenging in a protracted bear market. I turned most of my Coinbase alerts off, does Revolut let you opt out too?

I prefer to keep notifications on as I invested in 30+ different tokens :face_with_monocle:

Never know, which Altcoin will skyrock next :rocket:

Even for a Bitcoin firm the extent of illegal activity here is somewhat shocking.

Anyone have any views on the โ€˜ledger recoveryโ€™ โ€˜featureโ€™

May help :thinking:

I did my first swap via a dex and Metamask and honestly the hassle wasnโ€™t worth it nor the stress I could have accidentally swapped for a scam coin or sent to the wrong address.

Coinbase or similar (even with the lawsuits currently) is the easiest and safest way to get involved and such. And thatโ€™s the way if ever it will take off.

The other ways are just less safe and cuberssome, swap this to this network, swap to this to connect to that โ€ฆ etc

Banking is far superior in my eyes even with additional fees

Quite an interesting article in The Times today. Reports on upcoming changes to UK regulations as well as outcomes from a survey of 2300 UK crypto owners.

If this is paywalled, itโ€™s probably also reported elsewhere

Because someone doing their own research and finding something off Google is acting on their own initiative, broadly speaking.

Compared to someone signing up from a referral because they werenโ€™t particularly interested but their mate press-ganged them into it.

Oneโ€™s push, the otherโ€™s pull, and the distinction can be considered vital. Granted, thereโ€™s the niche group of โ€œWill Google first and then search for referral codes to save moneyโ€, but thereโ€™s no way to not take them out as collateral when serving the main aim of โ€˜protecting suckers who otherwise wouldnโ€™t have got involvedโ€™.

Whilst I donโ€™t understand the banning, I think at least in the past most of the shares offers werenโ€™t invest it was usually top up your account wasnโ€™t it? FreeTrade certainly was in the past, and then you got a free share.

I guess Crypto you had to make a purchase. I suppose itโ€™s probably more due to people not having a clue and being scammed over the phone or losing money at a rapid pace.
