This is something which has been rolling around my brain for the last 24 hours...
I read yesterday of a 73yo woman who was deported from the US by ICE, its been
happening to ordinary residents in the US not just dangerous criminals and it
can happen in other countries for example Australia.
Anyway the point of the thread is NOT to debate whether the deportations are
justified or not, this thread is to discuss what happens when you are picked up.
Assuming you are picked up outside your home and deported you lose possession of
your belongings including your hardware wallet and seed (assuming you dont carry it
with you and assuming the officials havent confiscated it)
I cant figure out how I would survive if I had no contacts left in the country
they deported me to, with possibly no or limited money and no access to my
bank or to my Bitcoin.
The vast majority of us will never encounter such a scenario but...
Outside of asking a family member/friend to retrieve your HW wallet and/or seed
What do you do in such a scenario?
This kind of situation can be very disgusting and very challenging and at the same time there are some period in life when things goes against your wish and such situation might be very difficult for you to control.
I have seen people who are one time or the other lost their properties, money or belongings to criminals, fire incident etc and when such a thing occur you need to remain courageous and forge ahead.
Loosing your cryptocurrency wallet is a very sadden experience but how ever people have also lost their fund in one way or the order, but remember you did not loose your life, if you are unable to recover your wallet, you have to start up again to build your self and your wallet in your current location.
In life one can fail in his endeavour several times, and that does not mean you are a failure, it is only when you quit from making effort, that is when you become a failure.
