Over the years, I have used quite a few different exchanges, and it seems that I have figured out some ways to not hold large amounts on any exchanges, even though surely some might consider my amounts to be large and the risk NOT to be worth it, and yes, each of us needs to figure out our own risk tolerance and even if we understand the risks. I did not have any money on Terra luna, Celsius, Gemini earn, GBTC, Voyager, Blockfi, or FTX.. so maybe I am just lucky? And my time is going to come. By the way, I did lose some money on BTC-e.. so maybe I am just too stubborn? And I have been hacked previously (through sim swap techniques), so maybe I am just too willing to lose money?
I know you won't keep your coins on any exchanges unless this is an amount you don't care about. I have used a few exchanges as well and I still do. I never been hacked or non of the exchanged freezer or seized my balance. So, you can consider me lucky as well.
Why would I blame myself? I already know that Binance and Binance US has been on the hotseat for quite a while.. and what about Coinbase, should people stop using Coinbase too? Oh no the Binance situation (level of scary) is much moar worser, right?
I know that binance (and binance US) are not even close to the same kind of shame as FTX, even though a lot of dumb and ill-informed people talk about Binance and FTX as if Binance were the same as FTX.
Nah, Binance has a way better reputation than FTX. Binance becomes a giant exchange in the last few years. If somebody compares Binance with FTX; they don't know much about it. But since the platform is in question; I don't see any reason to use it with a large amount (At least for now)
just sayin. Of course, everyone has their own Point of view and they might not agree with me.
There are probably dumber decisions that people can make in life... so by definition, whatever I am doing could not be "the dumbest".. if you even know the meaning of the words that you choose to use, and I am thinking that it can be quite dumb to assume too much about the situation of another person.. of course, you are just trying to help, right? Especially since I likely suggested that you were not as smart as you are presenting yourself as being.
I am sorry if that was offensive. Maybe because of the language barrier? I am not trying to be a smartass. Just curious about it. I know you are an old-timer Bitcoiner. You must have good experience with using various services. Still, if you choose to use a platform that is in question; of course it's up to you. Once again, If you felt offensive by the word I have used; I apologize for that.
