CRYPTOPIA GOT HACKED - I PREFER ENJOYING TIME WITH MY SON - DTube talk#144

in dtube •  6 years ago 


Hi Dtube family.
Well, nothing new by now. The exchange Cryptopia got hacked and it seems many deposits are gone. I had still some Electroneum (ETN) on there and didn't pulled them off into a save wallet. So far, I don't know if I still have them, but I expect the worst and consider these ones as lost. We will see.
Besides that shit, I enjoyed some great time with my son, but let me tell you more about it in the video.

Thank you for watching and have a wonderful day!

Love from Barcelona

Sorry to hear this hack has hit you.

I was an active promoter of the PROOF OF KEYS day, Jan 3.
In fact - I always say to everybody who wants to listen - STAY AWAY from centralized exchanges. This is the biggest evil in crytpo these days

Here is a nice short list of 10 famous crypto places during last 7-8 years:
PicoStocks, Mt.Gox, BTC-E, Poloniex, Bitcurex, Cryptsy, BTER, MintPal, Bitstamp, ShapeShift

Guess what three common hings I can say about them all?

  • I had accounts, and been used them one time or another there, in all 10 of them
  • All 10 been hacked in the past, and lost their client funds
  • I have never lost even one single satoshi in any of those 10 places

Why?
Because I do not trade, at least not day trading. And I REMOVE my funds immediately once I have my desired exchange completed.

Seems like a simple rule? But it works !

Wish you well, and keep putting on those videos, Mr. @hauptmann !tip

I watch many of them. But do not publish much from my side yet.
I'm just waiting until that DTube "praising and adulation mania" will fall down a bit. Or possibly misterdelegation removes their 2M SP injection from dtube. As at the present the atmosphere here seems rather toxic to me.

Thank you so much @onealfa for your words and great support. Well, yes I knew about the risk and I just can blame myself for this (eventually) loss. Thank you for your insight about the exchanges. You might be about the the remove of the misterdelegation injection from DTube. Had the same thoughts in my video from yesterday. If this will happen (and I think it’s just a matter of time) we will find out who is in the game for other reasons then rewards. I wish you a great day and once again thank you for your contribution.

U R welcome. Maybe I'll see you in May in Forum

...who is in the game for other reasons then rewards.

Seek for rewards is natural, and not that bad "per se".
But when the situation is forcing the whole community to be "as nice as possible" to just the one single "boss" - It leads to the dead end ( as I see it). And such game is not for me.
Some time ago, (~1 week) I saw someone made the TOP100 of DTubers. This hit me bad, so I've spend few hours digging, how exactly the voting power from @Dtube got distributed in the whole 2018. The results are so obvious, that additional comments seem to be needless.

Vertical axis - combined voting power used, in vest units.

TOP3 = Bottom 59% of all accounts ever noticed.
TOP10 = bottom 77% of all noticed.

That is what I've called "toxic"

That would be a great pleasure meeting you here in Barcelona. I know you care a lot about a healthy community here within our Steem environment. I have to admit, I have way less insight into the whole system then you. So it would be great chatting in person with you and learn from your insight. Thanks for considering to join the Forum!
Best greetings from Barcelona

🎁 Hi @hauptmann! You have received 0.1 SBD tip from @onealfa!

@onealfa wrote lately about: What You Think Of Cex And Dex? Feel free to follow @onealfa if you like it :)

Sending tips with @tipU - how to guide :)

@hauptmann, That's why we have to deal with Exchanges carefully and diligently because we never know when something unexpected happens and we lose the control. And it's unfortunate because some may lose huge parts in these kind of scenarios.

And no matter what, our ultimate peace is associated with our family and whatever time we spend with them gives the sense of joyfulness essence and peace surrounds us. Stay blessed brother. 🙂
