Scammers hacked the late actor Matthew Perry’s Twitter account and posted a fake plea for cryptocurrency donations in the name of his foundation. The foundation confirmed the post was a scam and urged people not to donate.
The article details several possibilities for how the account may have been compromised, highlighting the importance of strong passwords and multi-factor authentication for securing social media accounts, especially for celebrities with large followings.
The fact that people are still saying things like this about crypto—even after ETF approval—is proof that it’s still early. By the time the average person realizes what’s been going on with Bitcoin, it’ll be too late for you.
I’ve already tripled my initial investment from a year ago, and we’re just only getting started.
FIFY
Then invest in ETH instead. It uses proof of stake instead of proof of work.
You are proof that the only people interested in crypto do it to try and become rich.
That user only represents some of crypto. There are others like myself who are not in it to get rich, but to maintain sovereignty in a surveillance state and dystopian world such as we are heading for.
Then you’re in trouble.
You can easily be watched by police when you’re using cryptocurrency, so an entire surveillance state should have no problem.

Not all blockchains are public.
Fine. Which one can people be absolutely sure a nation state can’t watch them use?
They mentioned it in your article. Monero.
Sorry but if it is available for anyone to use its public, you can’t use a blockchain currency without downloading and referencing the block chain. Something that can NOT be changed by you or I
Replace blockchain with ledger, because that is what it is. It is no more secure than using a fucking bank card.
Seriously how fucking stupid are all of you people?
Do me a favor and look up Monero Ring CT and stealth addresses. It’s not totally private, but if you are one of sixteen, there is a very low chance of being identified, and the more transactions away you are, the lower the chance of being identified properly. Also, full membership proofs are in the works, which would make the possible transaction part of every other transaction on the chain up until that point. And there won’t be a way to easily trace.
Edit: i did the work for you.

You assume that crypto is some “honest” and “for the people” currency system because its all documented in the blockchain, when in reality it is gamed by big banks, investors and scammers just like other financial tool where a lot of money is involved and no or insufficiant regulations are in place. If Elon tweets “you can no longer buy tesla withy bitcoin”, your savings will loose a lot of value over night.
Well obviously. Why bother elsewise?
Next you’re probably going to claim people who go to work just do it for the money.
You see no problem with a proof of stake ‘’‘currency’‘’?
None whatsoever. I’m staking ETH right now. It’s free money.
Lol ok.
So let’s create a shit ton of ewaste destroying SSD’s?
Unregistered security token.
Sure
Not like we still get daily updates on here: https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/
I can’t tell whether you’re a real crypto person or not. Real crypto people don’t believe in ETFs because you’re not holding your own keys. So it sounds like you are just in it to make more fiat, which is bullshit. But I could be wrong about you.
That’s why I don’t buy ETFs. Never said I did. Keep it all in a hardware wallet, only leaving enough on an exchange for day-to-day transactions.
You may need to hold any crypto at all on an exchange and not in a wallet that you control the keys to?
Just so you know, one of the most common tactics in a scam is to convince the target that they must “act fast or the opportunity will be over!”
