  The idea that crypto was “easy” back then is crazy. First, you had to make sure you didn’t have funds on Cryptopia, because one day they could just shut the exchange down. Then you had to survive the P&Ds from McAfee, OG scammers, and fight your own greed. Then came the ICO era, where you had to find the few gems while 99% of projects went straight to zero within days. After that, you had to survive years of bear market and the COVID crash. Then FTX happened. You had to make sure your funds weren’t there when that mf decided to gamble with users’ money. And even if you survived all of that, you could still lose everything on LUNA, the alt of that cycle. 6 figs went to a few cents. People remember the gains. They forget how many times you could have lost it all.

  @csin02 @abetrade To be fair: 1) I own 0 BTC that I have access to (9 or so on cryptopia) 2) Mini-brands is just some random ****. Didn't realise they ventured into $BTC. She actually got $BTC and pop-tarts... basically me.

  [Crypto used to be a much harder game to play] Ansem looks back at the early days of crypto and the risks traders faced before today’s infrastructure existed. “We were getting ******* wrecked trading on Bittrex, trading on Cryptopia.” “You would sometimes send Bitcoin through the exchanges and not even know if it was going to show up.” “In 2013 and 2014 you had to download .exe files to buy the coins.” There were sketchy exchanges, broken UIs, unreliable deposits, and plenty of ways to lose money before even making a trade. EtherDelta could turn a simple order into a costly mistake, while early users sometimes had to download executable files just to access new tokens. Today’s onchain traders deal with bundlers, copy traders, and intense competition. Back then, the infrastructure itself was part of the risk. The market may be more competitive today, but early crypto was survival mode. w/ @blknoiz06

  Ltc Pairs on cryptopia, ICO vamps and endless fakes on etherdelta, to this day the worst UX in all of tek, wanchain and antshares and bundled scams. Iota and EOS and endless beautifully packaged vaporous at scale extractions. Whitepaper nonsense bonanza and dentists on the blcokchain. Catching wrong 0’s on the blockchain still goated though. Bittrex and Poloniex listings/delistings like the grim reaper, riddled with inside info that would make Sam blush. Cexes “dying” every other week and taking your coins with them.  Raiblocks and manhunts in Florence.  There was no EVM dexes and amm and easy to use permissionless liquidity. You had to really ducking funt for it. Also. Dead was ******* dead. No cto’s no rescue no rebranding. We had inaccessible “launchpads” that where more rigged than any whitelist and seed round nowadays, and that ALREADY felt like a generational improvements to what came before.  So let’s go back. Bitcointalk forums is where you got your infos on new launches. Not the endless flux of information you have now, curated in tweetdeck, straight into your veins through financial social apps and somwhat reputable names in crytpotwityer. You had to decipher the one message from “myleakybum04” posted 4 days ago with maybe 3 unhinged replies, mostly hentai porn, and what ******** it is that he meant when he launched urea on the blcokchain.  Actual skilled ****** devs booby trapping any pow coin so not only you got rugged on the coin, your whole stack and quite possibly your entire pc with all your sensitive infos could get drained in an instant. I had a dozen chromebocks labeled “biohazard 1” “biohazard 2” “biohazard 3” for new launches. You also had to actually mine some of that ****, download a whole *** new blockchain, and ******* pray. It took days. Ask @notsofast, he’s got stories. Write down a new private key in paper every time, store it safely.  Now you just have this sanitized lil app, you click a button and your evm scam is on 10 l2’s in a second, ten seconds bridges, lp’s set in a minute, and when you get rugged you burn through one of your million hot wallets if that, two clicks, and move on. It’s painless. Just money.  Alqo still goated though.  Paper wallets. Actual paper wallets you had to print. Yes. With a physical printer. THAT was Ethereum and ALREADY it was light years more friendly than anything before that. “Dev died” a lot more back then too. Then you had 2020 summer of defi where all of that got sped up 100x on the EVM. Booby traps and liquidity drains and exploits everywhere.  Depegs on ******* stables where the norm. The very concept of having the luxury of being in something stable is relatively new. Only thing you could do was hide in bitcoin, that had 20/30% swings on the daily. And the nastiest price action fueled by Arthur’s woodchipper.  But pulling the plug on covid crash night so we wouldn’t go to actual ******* zero still goated though. You actually had to THINK 👇

  @CryptoCurb @FBI BTC-e was shut down for money laundering. Cryptopia died after a massive hack. Binance? Already went through every possible investigation, paid $4.3B in fines, and operates under U.S. oversight. So no — this isn’t “the next BTC-e.” This is a regulated giant, not a shadow CEX from 2017.

  I have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges. My portfolio is spread as followed, to minimize risks: 20% MtGox 20% BTC-E 20% Cryptsy 20% Cryptopia 20% FTX Plan is to log in and cash out in 5 years.

  After the Coldcard hack the vultures arrived on schedule, circling in perfect formation, announcing that self custody is de facto dead. You've read the posts. If only these poor souls had kept their coins "on an exchange," none of this would have happened. Adults said this out loud, in public, with their real names attached. So let's do the thing nobody circling the corpse wanted to do. Let's look at the data. 🔴 Mt. Gox — 2014 Hot-wallet theft + years of mismanagement → insolvency ~850,000 BTC (~200k later recovered) 🔴 Bitfinex — 2016 Hot wallet breach ~119,756 BTC 🔴 Coincheck — 2018 Hot wallet breach (NEM) ~523M XEM (~USD 530M then) 🔴 Zaif — 2018 Hot wallet breach ~5,966 BTC + other assets (~USD 60M) 🔴 QuadrigaCX — 2018–19 Not a classic hack: founder death + "inaccessible" cold wallets; monitor found big shortfall / suspected fraud ~26,000 BTC + other coins (~CAD 190–250M+) 🔴 Cryptopia — 2019 Hacked, then liquidation (BTC + alts) ~USD 16M+ initially reported 🔴 Binance — 2019 Hot wallet breach 7,000 BTC (~USD 40M — SAFU covered users) 🔴 KuCoin — 2020 Hot wallets breached ~USD 275M mixed tokens 🔴 BitMart — 2021 Hot wallets breached ~USD 150–200M mixed 🔴 FTX / Alameda — 2022 Fraud & insolvency; customer funds misused ~USD 8–10B shortfall 🔴 DMM Bitcoin — 2024 Unauthorized outflow 4,502.9 BTC (~USD 300M+) 🔴 WazirX — 2024 Multisig / custody breach ~USD 230–235M mixed 🔴 Bybit — 2025 Cold-wallet / signer exploit ~401,000 ETH (~USD 1.4–1.5B), not BTC-led Custodial and protocol heists together — centralized exchanges plus DeFi and bridges — run into the tens of billions of dollars over their lifetime at event prices, with single bad years clearing USD 2–3B in hacks alone. That's not counting fraud, insolvency, or the founder who dies with the keys in his head. One Coldcard wave: roughly USD 0.04–0.07B. Do the division. Very rough math puts Coldcard at somewhere between 0.1% and 1% of a single bad year, and comfortably under 1% of lifetime headline losses from exchanges and DeFi combined. It is a rounding error. It is the tip you leave on the bill for everything else that got stolen this decade. And it is being used as an argument to hand your keys back to the same institutions that produced the top of that table. But I'm not going to end on a smug ratio, because something about this genuinely bothers me. The people who lost money here were not degens. They weren't farming yield on a bridge held together with hope and a Discord moderator. They were the careful ones — the people who read the guides, bought the hardware, wrote the words down on steel, and did everything the responsible adults told them to do. Playing it safe is exactly what got them hit. That's the part that stings, and anyone selling you a custodial account off the back of their pain should be treated accordingly. The conclusion doesn't move, though. Verify your entropy, verify your seed on a second implementation, stop trusting single black boxes — and understand that from a strict safety analysis, your funds have never been safer than in self custody.

  @SallyLondon7 @HuobiGlobal @justinsuntron Personally after Cryptopia crashed many of us asked Justin Sun to help recovery TRX He never replied never helped anybody. Sad is that Huobi was my favourite CEX. Now with Justin Sun and his empty promises, lies $pgala. I will probably leave big trades elsewhere. Big Risk Huobi

  @Moon1ightSt Someone who joined X in 2021 knows little about Justin Sun dumping HT tokens from $10 to $2.23. He damaged Gala token investors with pgala. His FUD token addressed FTX debt. In 2019, he refused to help Cryptopia CEX investors recover their TRX. He never does anything for people!

  @Angeliki_T1 @RobinhoodApp In my experience, whether you self custody or use a centralized exchange, it has never hurt to sign up. Whether or not I send my BTC there is a whole different matter. Until every bank is an outlet I choose to support those that have opted to try. Much Love Cryptopia. 🧡

  Thinking that Ordinals and Runes are dead because of a singular (and unsupportive) platform shutting down is like saying Altcoins are forever dead because BTC-E is gone Cryptsy is gone Bittrex is gone Cryptopia is gone And the list goes on infinity

  Year: 2017 Month: October i got paid my first crypto salary around $10K in SMART coin. (don't search for it, it's dead) held it given the momentum in the market fast forward 2 months, the market peaked i see a limit buy order in the order book of cryptopia exchange. the buy order is for 1M SMART coin and the order was worth 50 BTC. an order matching the exact amount of SMART i held in my wallet. the thought crossed my mind this could be mine if i just transfer my SMART to the exchange and dump it on that buy order. i didn't. i watched that buy order get eaten up from 50 BTC value down to 40 BTC value and further down to 30 BTC value. my early learning days and the reason to not sell was that market goes down and comes back up. little did i know that there's another side to it which is that the market goes goes down but never comes back up again if it is a shitcoin or any coin other than BTC. i held that portfolio through the entire bear market of 2018-2019 and eventually ended up selling it for 3 BTC then i decided to leverage trade this 3 BTC to make more BTC and ended up with 0.3 BTC those 50 BTC that i didn't sweep from the floor were worth over $6M during the last cycle peak. a very ******* expensive lesson but this marked my crypto graduation ceremony🎓 it's the story about the trade i didn't take.
