I hold under 1 BTC at this time.

I have a lot of mining gear worth more than 1 BTC at this time.

I would send this amount to some charitable foundation for sick children or children without parents. It's not my fault that the keys that someone lost were found by another person. I doubt the real owner can be found. Too many people will show up. Accordingly, it is considered easy money or someone's alms. Therefore, alms should be given to those in need. If you leave yourself such amounts, you can expect trouble. In my opinion, it was a fair decision.

Regardless where we live, money is our top priority in order to survive and thrive. Having enough money to fall back on means we are entitled to more choice and possibilities. Like it or not, we are chasing or being forced to chase money in most phases of our life. Financial freedom has been most people's ultimate goal for decades, if not for centuries. To achieve this goal, we will encounter endless challenges. Each of us has a unique life situation so what is your biggest obstacle to achieving it ? I know we can make a long list of problems but there must be one or two primary reasons that really hold you back. This is where we should focus and I would like to hear your story. Thanks.

In regard to this article: https://coingeek.com/binance-to-us-authorities-prosecute-us-and-crypto-will-collapse/

Could binance collapse if they get prosecuted? With the collapse of FTX these things became more much imaginable, then again this could all be just FUD as we've seen it many many times before.
Once again the crypto market is on the brink of another apocalypse.   If it wasnt for this possibility I would never want to sell my coins at this point as I pretty much think the bottom could be in. I saw so many bad news over the course of years and this could easily just be 99% FUD again but if it isnt my crypto money will probably be 99% worthless in case of this event happening so I do give it some thought. What do you think will happen? Do you think about selling your coins? Also what would happen with stable coins, would they still hold any value if this happened?

Also how would such a scenario unfold IF it happened? When would we know? How long would the whole process take? Would there be enough time in between to make a decission or do you think it would unfold rapidly, trigger a chain reaction and steep losses?

The impact of FTX’s bankruptcy after the run on the currency circle is still fermenting, and Binance, the leading cryptocurrency exchange, has made the market tense again.

On Friday, December 16, Binance announced that from Monday to Wednesday this week, the platform had a net outflow of approximately US$6 billion. Although it did not disclose this amount as a percentage of the value of coins deposited by customers on Binance, it has confirmed that the scale of Binance customers’ withdrawals has skyrocketed.

On December 17, the Dutch cryptocurrency trading platform Bitvavo stated that it has lost access to 2.8 billion euros (about 29.7 billion U.S. dollars) in assets stored in DCG.

There is no doubt that at this time we must invest to improve the future, do not focus on active income because when we cannot work then we will regret, investment does not need to wait for us to be rich or have a lot of money, we can start with a small value for example $ 100 Then we add according to our abilities.

And good investment today is Cryptocurrencies because of the opportunity to continue to increase.

It's been nothing but JOY through out yesterday for me, as I was able to officially buy my first Bitcoin for HODL. I have been really interested in cryptocurrency lately but had no single clue of how it really works.
I then met with a friend, not just friend but a very long time friend, who have been thriving in the crypto space for guidance, and he kept giving me series of web links to go study and get back to him when done.
This is one thing I'm not really good at, which is reading for long and even writing.
I tried twice but couldn't and kept going back to him to just summarize everything and show me how to start making a living out of Bitcoin just as he was doing, but he kept referring me back to the links he sent and each time he did, I really feel bad and thought he never wanted to help me.

Two months back I took the challenge and read all he gave to me and not just once but about thrice this time, got all I needed and went back to him, but on a different note and then he told me, "WE DON'T CUT CORNERS, TO MAKING A LIVING GENUINELY." I felt that really hard and one thing he always kept singing was that I always buy Bitcoin at every opportunity that I have and today I'm so glad to announce that I was able to buy about $60 worth of Bitcoin, glad the journey of a thousand mile has began on the 28 of October 2022, And I hope it leads to greater opportunity in the industry, as I'm willing to learn ways.

Please join me celebrate my little beginning as I hope to update the community about my progress.

Even if this data is totally accurate, who's to say that they wouldn't change their mind? I could almost guarantee a huge majority of people who bought into the bitcoin hype at near all-time highs were also planning on holding. But yet? Most of them panic sold.

In addition to what has been mentioned, if you want to check if an exchange is legit, just try to look it up on CMC. If there's nothing about it, you should stay away from it. This doesn't mean that you should use any exchange on coinmarketcap though. It's just that the criteria to be listed there are not that simple, not for someone who wants to scam people and earn a quick buck anyway.
