Anonymous Coward User ID: 75794396 United States 03/08/2022 07:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.brighteon.com (secure)] Mike Adams (Natural News) discusses using “stable” Crypto coins tied to gold & silver WITH ACCESS IN A SEPARATE (HARD)WALLET CONTROLLED ONLY BY YOU NOT AN EXCHANGE like COINBASE ! He is not suggesting speculation but using the “coins” as financial Instruments to purchase items & have your money outside of CENTRAL BANKS (even that may eventually be “outlawed” ). He said he was pushed in this direction by CANADA STEALING THE WEALTH OF THE PROTESTING TRUCK DRIVERS & what is HAPPENING TO ANYONE WHO DISAGREES ABOUT our USA’s goobermunt policy decisions !!!! On Ukraine - COVID etc. !!! Reasonable arguments on his part- he does warn against leaving large amounts at risk anywhere you do not have security and possession- he is still a “gold & silver bug” for wealth preservation but He seems to Believe in diversification- food, weapons ammo, gold, silver, fuel, even “Old cars” - what ever may be of value ! He even wants to list other merchants besides his own business that accepts Crypto coins. Yes he is long winded- financial the first part- then he goes into some religious beliefs . . .

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80919309 so they can just lock up whoever crypto anytime they want. pretty much. Canada and now Coinbase. these guys will say their wallet is a safe harbor which is technically true but it's vulnerable as soon as you interact over a network. . SELF-CUSTODY IS SAFE. You can always send money from one wallet/address to another without exchanges; the nodes and miners do this for you. If you need an exchange there are always decentralised ones like bisq.network If you need anonymity,m then do NOT use KYC. And do not re-use addresses. You can exchange through or into a privacy coin like Monero, and you can even do this using an atomic swap wothout ANY formal exchange in the middle. Don't be fooled by ignorant people. It is private, and can be as private as you need it to be, using the above tools. So the basic message from people that know crypto is that this headline is bullshit. Crypto is actually safe if you know what you are doing and not a noob like me, I own zero crypto. No rich Russian would really be affected by this move by coinbase because they don't keep their nut in coinbase...coinbase is just a place they can trade and cash out, but there are other secure ways to trace and cash out. Only morons keep their balance in an exchange...they keep it tied to some thumb drive or paper with the code on it. This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it. -Admiral Josh Painter The past was alterable. The past never had been altered. Oceania was at war with Eastasia.

Also, it has a fraction of the market as Binance. If Binance follows suit that would rock the crypto world. Coinbase, not so much. If you are on Coinbase you should expect them to come for you if they so choose. Free market is dead in USA. trolls vs bots - we live in a scifi world |

Crypto-currency trading platform Coinbase has blocked 25,000 wallet addresses related to Russia. The platform said the addresses were related to Russian individuals or entities it believed to have engaged in illicit activity. The addresses were blocked over fears crypto-currency could be used to evade sanctions. Soooo...if a private Crypto company can cut you off...do you really feel safe doing business with them? What if you are suddenly deemed the "enemy" and your assets are stolen by a private company? Jesus, how stupid are you.. a private centralized exchange has no bearing on how safe crypto is.. those wallets don't mean shit. THey can move it and use a different wallet. |

Exchanges are for EXCHANGING. DO NOT keep your cryptos there any longer than needed. So tired of peoples claiming to have their crypto stolen when it's their own fault for leaving them there in the first place. You have thousands of dollars in crypto and you can't afford a 100$ hard wallet ? |

Anybody with a brian who deals in crypto would keep the wallet on a thumbdrive in a safe. Keeping possession of it. Kinda like coinbase is equal to a gold exchange where you have 'paper gold', vs keeping physical gold in your closet. Saddens me it took THIS LONG to get to it, but you earned it: Not your keys? NOT YOUR CRYPTO. Funny how the normies ignore that and then when that goes south point at US and go SEEEE WE TOLD YOU IT WAS UNSAFE!!!11 Ugh. |
