    If bitcoin is a gamble then the US Dollar is a crap shoot. All these articles stating how risky bitcoin is wouldn’t know a good thing even if it punched them directly in the face. Fools.

    Finally. Binance listened. Now you can add more than one Yubikey for extra security!

    Posted: 08 Sep 2020 09:01 PM PDT

    Hello,

    I've been literally spamming Binance support over this. They only allowed one Yubikey to be enabled for signing in and confirming withdrawals, I wasn't comfortable with this as losing your key means you'd have to re-do KYC.

    Out of nowhere, I checked my Binance security page to find out that you can now add as many Yubikeys as you want!

    ELI5: Yubikey is a hardware key that works pretty much like your hardware wallet, but for your identity. It makes phishing attempts much harder since you need to touch a physical button to sign in. That button won't be enabled unless the site you're trying to log into is Binance.com. Google has implemented this technology and gave those keys to each of their 90k employees and they've reported 0 phishing attempts ever since.

    The technology that makes this possible is called FIDO2, it comes out of the box with your Trezor/Ledger. If you don't want to spend money on a separate device, then make your hardware wallet a storage for your wealth and online accounts.

    Take your security to the next level, especially after what happened in May of last year.

    (Serious Question) How can we expect to truly adopt a new currency if it’s “value” is always dependent on the dollar?

    Posted: 08 Sep 2020 11:09 PM PDT

    You'll have to excuse the dumb question that is probably very obvious, but I've been following crypto for years and I guess I just don't understand how we can ever go to a completely crypto system when all I ever see is what bitcoin is worth compared to the dollar. I can't quite get my head around how we transfer and entire currency system if we always value its worth against the dollar. There must be something I'm just way too stupid to understand. Will someone please explain this to me?

    Should I buy a hardware wallet if I only possess $100 worth of bitcoin?

    Posted: 08 Sep 2020 02:03 PM PDT

    So today was my first day to purchase $100 of bitcoin using shakepay. My intention is to buy $100 worth of bitcoin every month (I'm 19yr old so a bit tight on budget) for the next 20 years. I am also not willing to trade bitcoin, will just hold onto then pretty much forever. Do you guys recommened buying a hardware wallet? Or what kind of wallet should I store my bitcoin? I know I'm not supposed to store my bitcoin in the shakepay app, but I'm pretty lost here..

    Need some help understanding a hardware wallet

    Posted: 09 Sep 2020 03:29 AM PDT

    So from what I can gather the point of a hardware wallet is a wallet that has never connected to the internet, now I can see how that is possible when you are only transferring to it, but how can you transfer from it without connecting to the internet?

    How Bitcoin Mining is Being Used to Repurpose Natural Gas Flaring: Sustainability in Mining and Bringing Hashrate to America

    I’m now a believer in Bitcoin, how much should I buy?

    Posted: 08 Sep 2020 10:48 PM PDT

    While I used to think cryptocurrency was either a fad or ponzi scheme, I now see that it could likely be the future.

    While it has problems like no fraud protection, being difficult to purchase and store, and inconvenient for transactions, companies like coinbase and many others are building companies around addressing these problems.

    It's obviously volatile but it's survived numerous major downturns, and even its lower bound is steadily increasing over time...

    And the most interesting thing to me is when a nation's economy fails many people actually turn to bitcoin, it just doesn't have the infrastructure yet to be widely used

    I'm seriously considering exchanging half my net worth, $100K USD for BTC, and using it over the next few years for purchases where I can and sending remittances to family abroad. I realize it's extremely risky but I look at it as helping to shape the future by supporting the startups via transaction fees, and I believe the potential reward also outweighs the risk by far.

    Anyone have insights as to whether I should buy and if 50% of my net worth is crazy?
