Like I said earlier, I only brought up that platform because I saw a positive review from a trader I know. The other exchanges I already knew more or less. I get that it’s not well-known — that’s exactly why I asked here, figured someone on an expert forum might’ve heard of it.
We’re not super close — just chat now and then, and I follow his channel. That’s why I haven’t really bombarded him with newbie questions 😅 But yeah, good point about checking local exchanges first. Really appreciate the advice!
So someone from the internet recommended an exchange no one has heard about. That's rings my alarm bells because we've heard that a lot of times lol
It's pretty much the recipe of fake exchange scams—scammers recommending obscure exchanges they secretly own, hence can control every part of it. These scammers could also play the long game and build their reputation first so victims would find it easier to trust them or they could be using hacked accounts.
Best to errr on the side of caution, OP as a shit ton of people have already fallen victim to such schemes. Stay safe and good job researching first!
