Re: What is your constructive hobby?

We all have different hobbies. What is one hobby that sets you apart from your friends and also has a constructive usage.
Mine is to learn how to code in various languages by accepting jobs. That makes me work better under pressure of submitting my work fast.
P.S: Making memes doesn't count.

I am a graphic designer working at home and I sing and play the guitar during my breaktime. It gives a boost to my creativity. So whenever I can't think of any design, I play the guitar and play around with the notes and it's a charm.

Re: Are you happy on what you've become today?

For me, it's a yes because I've learned a lot and experienced a lot from my past and it helped me develop on who I am today.

I am happy but I am still a bit frustrated that I did not become who I want to be. But overall I am very happy with my status right now. Things are going great and lots of opportunities are coming in. It was a blessing in disguise that I did not achieve the profession I wanted to be.

Re: How can I quit smoking?

I started practicing cigarettes since I was 9 years old. Regular smoking starts from the age of 12. Now I am 26 years old, I'm trying hard to give up smoking, but can not do  not? Can someone give me some good advice to quit smoking?

I used to be a smoker. I just kept on making myself busy with different things like gaming and work. I just woke up one day that I don't like smoking anymore.

Re: Telegram is trash

Seems it's just an echo chamber that tells you your bags are going to the moon... And if the price happens to go down? ?
....then it's another chance to fill your bags even more LMFAO!

One critical observation.... Instaban!

Silly ass shit

Am I wrong?

Telegram is not trash. For me, it is really the best messaging platform for cryptocurrency projects. What makes it trash are the groups and the members who spam random trash referral links and promotions of random projects. And also, it all depends on project and with the people who manages the communities. One thing I hate the most in Telegram are these random pervert users who keep on messaging any users who use pictures of girls. I tried using a picture of a girl once and I got 10 PMs in less than 2 minutes.

Re: Not your keys, not your Crypto – Kucoin Hacked! $150m Stolen.
by

This is yet another reason why storing large amount of funds on exchanges is a bad idea.

It appears Kucoin exchange has been hacked. For the past 7 hours, Over $150m in Ethereum and other erc20 tokens have been withdrawn to an unknown wallet here: https://etherscan.io/address/0xeB31973E0FeBF3e3D7058234a5eBbAe1aB4B8c23

Bitcoin outflows were moved to Bitfinix.


Kucoin's Responses

Their telegram chat has gone haywire since then as worried users have been asking about an update. Alicia (Head of VIP at Kucoin) replied:




Things doesn't add up here. If the funds were being moved by Kucoin, they wouldn't be investigating. It's either you or not. Users have reported seeing empty balances and currently withdrawal and deposits has been disabled. Since we have different DeXs available now, the hacker can easily unload all those funds.



While this isn't a "confirmed" hack yet, this is a friendly reminder to everyone who still stores loads of funds on exchanges. Your funds are a lot more safer when they're stored in your private wallet. I will keep updating the thread.

Update 1:

Looks like the hacker is cashing out using shitcoins  available in decentralized exchanges. If this is a joke by Kucoin, then it's an interesting one


Update 2: – Hack Confirmation

Kucoin just confirmed the hack:

We detected some large withdrawals since September 26, 2020 at 03:05:37 (UTC+8). According to the latest internal security audit report, part of Bitcoin, ERC-20 and other tokens in KuCoin’s hot wallets were transferred out of the exchange, which contained few parts of our total assets holdings. The assets in our cold wallets are safe and unharmed, and hot wallets have been re-deployed.

We are locating the reason for the incident, and will keep you updated once it is confirmed. Please rest assured that if any user fund is affected by this incident, it will be covered completely by KuCoin and our insurance fund.

To ensure the security of users’ assets, we will conduct a thorough security review. The deposit and withdrawal service will be suspended during the period. We will restore the service gradually after ensuring a safe state. We will keep you updated.

As "The People’s Exchange", we will take full responsibility and maintain transparency. To keep you updated regarding the latest updates, our CEO Johnny Lyu will update more details through a livestream at 12:30 (UTC+8), September 26, 2020. Please submit your questions here if you have any.

We greatly appreciate your understanding and support.

The KuCoin Team

Update 3:
More funds are being moved. Hack still on.



Update 4:

In response to the hack, Kucoin's CEO hosted a livestream to discuss details of the hack: https://www.kucoin.com/news/en-kucoin-ceo-livestream-recap-latest-updates-about-security-incident

Update 5:

Tether Treasury has frozen over $20M tethers that were stolen. They're still about $120M of movable funds + some projects have agreed to invalidate some stolen tokens from their supply: https://www.kucoin.com/news/en-kucoin-ceo-livestream-recap-latest-updates-about-security-incident




The bottom line is, Kucoin will refund the stolen funds thanks to their insurance.



Well that is really true. Not your keys, not your crypto, not your money. This is why I opted last year to just use a crypto wallet where I can just swap/exchange my crypto inside the wallet. Although the fees are high, it's still very convenient for me and I am very sure that my assets are safe with me. These decentralized platforms like Uniswap are what we need now and not these CEXs.

From what I understand by reading all the comments on this reddit from a day ago it's creator: u/mavensbot

Also from this Mt.Socks was formed:

Re: Bitcoin for Christmas

We are already in "ber" months which it is a sign that we are fast approaching on Christmas day which is on December 25.
I have this on my mind that I'll start to prepare my present or gifts to some of my friends and family.

I want something related to Bitcoin like I will give a present that has related to Bitcoin, like some Angpao on Bitcoins? Paper wallets with Bitcoin inside? Or anything else.
So I am here asking for some opinion of yours, what's your suggestion for a present or gift for our loved ones for this upcoming Christmas?
Well there are exchanges and wallets that has this feature called RED PACKETS. But for me, I will just send it directly to their wallets. Straightforward, no more bling bling.

Re: Is Bitcoin such a big risk?

Many people I know formed a bias that cryptocurrencies are inherently risky and you shouldn't invest in them more than you can afford to lose.

I agree with the above statement in a certain extent, but I'd like to ask the community. Is it riskier to place your money in Bitcoin or hold them in a fiat savings account? What's your opinion?

So curious to see the response especially today when we live in times of crisis.

Any cryptocurrency is risk. The higher the value of the cryptocurrency, the higher the risk.
