I made a crucial mistake in 2017 by sending Ethereum (ETH) to an Ethereum Classic (ETC) address on Yobit, which, ironically, is notorious for such mishaps. Despite numerous attempts, the support team hasn't provided a satisfactory solution. I've heard rumors that this type of error might be reversible, but I'm unsure about the credibility of such claims.

The amount I mistakenly sent is substantial, essentially an entire ETH. The frustration of dealing with unresponsive support has led me to seek alternative solutions. If anyone has faced a similar situation or has insights into whether this can be rectified, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.

I'm willing to express my gratitude by sending some ETH as a token of appreciation for any assistance in resolving this issue. Any advice, experiences, or recommended steps would be immensely helpful. I understand the risks involved in sharing personal experiences, but considering the urgency and significance of the situation, I'm hopeful that the community can provide valuable insights.

It's disheartening to have such a significant amount in limbo, especially given the potential for resolution. If there are any known methods, protocols, or success stories in similar situations, please share them. I'm open to exploring various avenues to recover the misplaced funds.

In retrospect, the choice of Yobit as the exchange for this transaction adds another layer of complexity to the situation. Nevertheless, I remain optimistic that there might be a way to undo or address this misstep.

Once again, I want to express my gratitude in advance for any assistance or information shared. This mistake has been a persistent source of concern, and I'm eager to explore every possible avenue for resolution. If you prefer to communicate privately, feel free to reach out, and we can discuss this matter further.

Thank you to the community for your time and consideration.

Hello Reddit! I'm looking for a safer way to store my crypto, but don't really understand the whole process.

I've currently got ~$5000 invested into different coins, and have bought and stored them all through Coinbase Advanced. I've just recently turned 16, so this is quite a lot of money for me, and although I'm okay with losing it, I would be very upset to see that I got hacked, or something in general happened where I ended up losing my money/getting it stolen.

With this in mind, I was looking into purchasing a ledger hardware wallet, or something like it, just to make sure that I am storing my crypto in the safest way possible. Only questions I have is, how would I buy/sell my crypto? Would I just purchase it through Coinbase Advanced like I already do, and then send it to my hardware wallet? Or is there a different way for me to buy and store my crypto, that would possibly negate service fees and just all around get rid of having to go through exchange services like Coinbase, Kraken, etc?

Dear all

I've decided that I want to learn daytrading, try out a few strategies and see how well it will do. Before I throw any real money into it, I'll be practising with a demo account on OKx

My question is: which profit goals are realistic per trade? 1%? 0.5%?

So far I've made some profitable trades of only a few € per trade, tried it with scalping, but I'm not sure if the way I did it was really that good, since the fees probably made up more than the entire profit of those positions

I would also like to demo trade with futures, sadly on OKx the demo account does not support futures trading

Many thanks in advance, the question was rather short, but this sub requires the post to be at least 500 characters long xD

Sometimes I keep $500 to $1,000 depending on my gains.

I've been testing out a way to store my secret keys in Gmail safely. So I've decided to make it a short story in my own language. The language is Somali and Google translate can help you. Somali has Arabic and some Hindi words in it fyi.

My 12 Phrase recovery for Phantom wallet is in the below. Have what's in the wallet if you can find it. Last time I did something similar was with a longer story and a guy was able to get some of the phrases but he couldn't get all lol.

Enjoy. If the prize isn't worth it for you then don't bother. But this is an interesting idea I came up with to store my secret phrase. I have other wallets too but this one wallet keys are below if you can find it. I translated the secret phrases from English to Somali to make it more challenging to figure out. If no one can find it, it shows just how secure this method. is.

I was just watching Tiffany Fong's interview with someone (no idea his job's exact name) who buys settlements, etc. Anyway, the guy in the interview explained that when FTX shut down withdrawals as the news of their insolvency was hitting the news, Justin Sun went to Twitter and other news websites relative to crypto. And told everyone that if they convert their holdings to TRX, they can withdraw.

If you go to Google and search: FTX TRX Withdrawals, you can read more info about it. In short this is how crazy it got:

Tron-based tokens sell at 1200% premium as FTX users scramble to withdraw

Here is a relevant tweet:

According to the person in the video, on FTX Justin's TRX was unoffically trading at upwards of $3 per coin from the now price of .11 cents. It was maybe .03 cents back when FTX went down. Holy crap. I was not prevy to this. The fact that Justin Sun and his inner circle rug pulled an already rug pulled people just makes me sad.

It should be eye opening today, that one article purely speculating on price, can make a “prediction” and crash the market by 10% within an hour.

The ‘value’ or price behind crypto is evidently just a pool of “herded” capital flow. Like sheep being told when to buy, why to buy, and when to sell.

Because there is no actual product, the only thing backing it is sentiment. And in our current digital age, sentiment can be manufactured and manipulated easier than ever.

Would love to hear your guys thoughts

To properly understand how the Blackrock ETF will impact the market we need to understand a few things about how the ETF will function. Do we know the answers to these details?

  • How's much BTC will Blackrock have to buy for this ETF? I doubt it'll be 1:1 the ratio of the market cap but this will definitly impact the total buying pressure on BTC. (Side note, the iron of reserve banking traits on a BTC ETF is not list on me)
  • Will the ETF be an exact peg of BTC or will it desync from BTC based on interest in the ETF itself? (Kind of like gold or S&P indexes)

Note: I will update the post as we get more info.

The recent FUD has one and only one goal: To scare HODLers and make them let go of their bitcoins because there is simply NOT enough BTC on the exchanges for institutions to sweep up.

There are only 1.88 million BTC on all exchanges combined. At 42k that's just 80 billion, one-tenth of BTC's total marketcap. When the spot ETFs get approved, that's all the BTC there is that the wolves are going to fight over. Institutions will keep spreading FUD saying BTC will fall to 15k or 10k, so to scare HODLers to let go, and once they do, the institutions can suck up all that liquidity. Then individual HODLers and institutional buyers would have swapped places. Individuals would then find it harder and harder to buy back the BTC they once HODLed....

Diamond hands, folks. Diamond hands. 💎✋

Just wanted to provide a quick rundown on the cryptocurrencies associated with the recent copyright release of Steamboat Willie. Copyright releases present a unique angle for crypto for obvious meme reasons. With Looney Tunes and Batman / other superheroes coming up in the next two decades, something to keep in mind.

  1. Steamboat Willie / MICKEY - ETH. this is a testesterone filled human spambots driven crypto that released 3 days prior to the copyright release. It currently holds a marketcap of $10-$14M range and has been shooting up as the first Mickey coin. May run into copyright issues down the line. Founders hold a substantial number of the supply. Also has NFTs tied to it. Only seems to have a telegram that is spam insanity. But the high energy and first mover advantage cannot be ignored.
  2. MOUSE - ETH. Released on 1/2/24, a more professional but quiet coin so far compared to MICKEY. Has a simple browser game in the works tied to it, and appears to be led by a lawyer. Currently at ~$600-$700K marketcap range, but does not have nearly the momentum or energy of MICKEY. On the other hand, it is a brand new coin and so far the team has been highly professional compared to MICKEY, especially in terms of keeping everything legal and proper. Might be worth taking a look while sub $1million MCAP. Has TG, Discord and website (www.mousecoineth.com)
  3. MICKEY on Solana - seems to have rugged already? But with Solana being the foremost hype right now, could easily make a come back if these Mickey Mouse coins become a thing.

I am currently 10x on MICKEY and 3x on MOUSE. This has been your primer on the Mickey Mouse cryptocurrencies.

All the exchanges are making it harder to buy cryptocurrencies, whether its via the registration process, or obstacles and high cost of exchanging FIAT to crypto. Its all just becoming a bit of a nightmare however I think I have found the most effective way to work around this. If you guys could critique it or provide another way, that would be great.

I do this by purchasing crypto directly from Trust Wallet (MoonPay or RAMP) and then just send it to binance to trade.

Its the simplest method for me and the amount you get almost equates if you did P2P.

Hope the above helps the UK guys in barriers they're creating for us and as for the experts, if you got a better way then please advise.

JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon Says Feds Should 'Close Down' Bitcoin

Bitcoin has already priced in spot ETF approval: Expert

Here’s Why The Approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs Could be a Sell-The-News Event: CryptoQuant

Spot Bitcoin ETFs could be rejected if the SEC wants ‘more time’ — Analyst

Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas says while it’s unlikely, there’s still a slim chance that the SEC could hand down the “rug pull of a decade.”

EDIT 2: I've just done a zoom call with a friend who uses coinbase, he went through the same process (whilst sharing his screen with me) but was less honest about his investments and the questions he got were not the same as mine and were very basic. So it seems if you say anything over 5% invested the questions change.

EDIT: I love posting here and getting abused by a bunch of Bro kids who have invested $20 a week ago.

Anyway, I've been doing some reading on this and talking a few people and it seems the questions are tailored to you depending on how much you are investing. So under a certain percentage you get basic questions, over a certain percentage you get different questions, trading you get harder ones again, this seems to have been my mistake, that and being a bit thick, so if you've not done it yet, and you are investing more than 5%, dont say that.

As part of our governments plans to help keep us safe (or should I say poor), they've introduced a bunch of new regulations that are making it very difficult to crypto. These include banning us from most exchanges, making it almost impossible to buy low cap or meme coins and making it very difficult to send crypto to friends etc.

As part of this, I now cant buy or sell on CB unless I pass a test... anyone passed it yet? I just failed twice and have to wait 24 hours before I can do it again, in the meantime I cant move money to CB or buy or sell crypto. Guess I should have done some research first...

And as all this nonsense is going on we are still allowed to gamble our life savings away in casinos or betting shops, or websites or apps, in fact we are encouraged to do so through aggressive TV advertising campaigns and no tax on winnings.

I hate my government. F**k you Rishi you little ****

All L2s should be working on (trustless, merkle-proof-based) CCIP resolvers, so that we can have ENS subdomains registerable, updateable and readable directly on L2s.

ENS is super-important, it needs to be affordable!

Seems like this CCIP resolvers is pretty important. Does anyone know what hes talking about? CCIP-what? Oh its related to CCIP-ENS? But what is CCIP-ENS? Who started CCIP-ENS and why?

Why does he want every L2 working on this? Are they all supposed to be integrating this feature?
