I am making this thread since I don't know if any exist and I really want something like this. If there is something like this out there, please point me towards it. What I am looking for is a one stop place you can go to, to easy get yourself updated on all the "critical" things you need to know about if you are involved in crypto.
Say you are a busy person and you only have time to check up on what is happening in crypto once a week, once a month, or maybe even less times (and even if you can do it daily and don't monitor everything it is easy to miss stuff), but you want to be in the loop if something critical has happened that needs your attention. My hope is that this thread will be that with the help of us all, and that people will post things here that are very important to know about so if you would go to one place to keep yourself updated on what has happened that is very important to know, this would be the place.
For example I have seen 4 such critical things over the last months:
- The first was the potential fork on august 1 and that you needed to prepare for it and potentially move your BTC to a wallet you controlled to be safe depending on what would happen.
- The second one was the Bitcoin Cash split. It would have been important to know that Bitcoin Cash would be airdropped to Bitcoin holders so that you at least knew about it and could prepare or take advantage of this situation to get your Bitcoin Cash.
- The third one is the wallet migration for the IOTA wallet. I was totally unaware and just by accident surfed into the IOTA reddit section to find out you need to migrate over your seed to a new released wallet.
- The forth was that Antshares changed their name to NEO, and that you now can/should download their new NEO wallet and import your Antshares into it.
These sort of critical updates that are important to know is what this thread is for (of course all might apply or not apply to you specifically if you don't hold a particular coin the update is affecting), and it would be great if people could post things here that are fitting this category. I am sure I have missed many updates, maybe there have been other wallets etc that needs to be upgraded or migrated for other coins in the past months, or maybe there is a coin that is discontinued and you need to convert it on their site to another coin etc etc.
Please post such thing here now and in the future that you think would be important for other people to know!
