    Apart from this sub, where do you get your crypto info from?

    Posted: 16 Feb 2020 12:59 AM PST

    Just curious about where people on this sub get their crypto news from apart from here ? I mean ok there are crypto news outlets like Coindesk etc... but it seems that people are getting information from many other places that I don't know about...

    What sources do you trust for discovering new projects? Is it podcasts? Blogs? YouTube channels? Do you wait until the coins are listed before researching? How do you get to find out about teams and ideas?

    I basically want to build a list resource for this, so I can filter out the crap and just focus on trusted and reliable sources.

    Privacy coins are legal. Mixing/laundering services are not.

    Posted: 16 Feb 2020 12:53 AM PST

    I see a lot of people complaining about the hammer coming down on mixing services. By using a mixing service, you're asking for trouble.

    It's a money laundering service, and a good deal of the coins mixed are from ill-gotten gains. You're using a service that takes your (probably legal) coins, and trades them for coins with a dirty history. You're gaining some privacy by helping someone else launder their money- or you're laundering your own money directly.

    Either way, you're incredibly likely to end up with some tainted coins.

    Privacy coins are not illegal, and won't make you complicit when it comes to helping others launder their money. Stop using mixing services, and support privacy coins instead.

    Index of media attention to cryptocurrencies.

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 10:03 PM PST

    I developed an index of media attention to cryptocurrencies. I'd like to figure out what kind of interest there is for this data. What frequency would people want? Hourly, daily? If there is sufficient interest, I may develop an API for monthly access.

    IOTA Network still turned off - Plan to reverse transaction to recover stolen funds due to wallet exploit.

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 07:52 AM PST

    The protocol was not breach. Rather, they decided to turn off the network because there was a bug in a wallet.

    • They turned off the network
    • because of wallet bug
    • for law inforcement to investigate
    • so they can reverse the transactions

    Wow.

    Also this:

    we are very much aware of the sentiment of the community. But with the safety of the users' funds being the highest priority in a Major Incident like this, we stand by our decision to make use of the coordinator's security features and halt all value transfers during the ongoing investigation, in order to protect the users. This not only stops the perpetrator from exploiting more captured seeds but ensures the time needed to fully understand the intrinsics of the attack and enact a mitigation strategy.

    Who actually reports earnings in crypto ( uk resident here )

    Posted: 16 Feb 2020 02:27 AM PST

    I know this is a grey area, and I even know people myself who have invested lots and not ever told HMRC at the end of tax year what they made in profits, I guess just in hope they don't pull them up in it...... but should everyone be doing this, I've used a calculator and I don't actually think I've hit over the threshold to officially report it. But with the bull market just around the corner I feel there will be 1000's of people that don't even know the law on this and probably will never have a single inkling about it

    Do any of you guys actually keep track of all spendings vs profits and transfers from crypto to crypto ???

    Where to buy crypto

    Posted: 16 Feb 2020 01:28 AM PST

    I've been looking into some places to buy and majority say coinbase, Robin Hood, and cash app. Coinbase is the number one but there are many people complaining about saying that customer service isn't good, restrictions on withdrawals and similar things like that. So hopefully y'all can help me out on a safe and reliable place to buy.

    -Thanks :)

    How does DeFi offer distinctly better interest rates on the same assets than banks? (stablecoins)

    Posted: 15 Feb 2020 06:23 AM PST

    Just wondering how a range of different DeFi platforms all seem to be able to offer anywhere from 6-10% APY interest on stablecoins, when so many economies and banks are at record low interest rates?

    I know that some like Nexo or Celsius can offer it due to the profits from lending, but how do other platforms without lending afford it?

    And for those that lend, doesn't that mean the interest for the borrower is really unattractive?

    Personally I've been really happy with what I've earnt back from DeFi, and would love to put more capital in but there must be significant risk somewhere in order to offer such high rates?

    What is it that I am missing? Educate me!
