  @krakensupport Hey @krakensupport, thanks for the reply. —We know the on-chain 0.5% tax burn exists, but the community really appreciates exchanges like Binance that go further by burning LUNC from their own trading fees every month and publishing the reports. —This has burned billions and shown strong support. Would Kraken consider doing the same? —It would mean a lot to the global LUNC holders who are still building and believing in Terra Classic’s recovery.

  @krakenfx @YahooFinance 2023 article to read ! 'Aliens Exist. And They Use Cryptocurrency' Daniel Kuhn July 28, 2023 4 min read Aliens exist. And they use cryptocurrency. 'This isn’t exactly a provable statement, but for all we know Bitcoin could have been a gift from extraterrestrials. Can anything else explain Satoshi Nakamoto’s disappearance? According to recent testimony from former Department of Defense employee turned whistleblower David Grusch, parts of the U.S. government have been engaged in an almost century-long conspiracy to cover up information regarding unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) in the nation’s airspace. The allegation was made during a House Oversight Subcommittee on National Security hearing Wednesday, and supported by claims made from executive director of Americans for Safe Aerospace Ryan Graves and retired Navy Commander David Fravor. In 2004 Fravor, then a pilot on routine mission, shot the now widely circulated footage of a “Tic Tac” shaped object capable of aerial maneuvers far beyond the technical limitations of modern aircraft. Now, dear CoinDesk reader, you may be wondering what UFOs or talk of non-human “biologics” and physics-defying tech have to do with crypto. In short, it doesn’t. I’m sorta banking on the crypto community’s inclination to speculate to hold this piece together and your attention. But, I mean, isn’t any example showing that authorities cannot be trusted another notch for blockchain, a reason to build tools that empower individuals? Anyway, aliens exist. And they use crypto. There are earthlings among us who are actually thinking seriously about what money would look like in space, and plenty of reasons to think fully verifiable, and self-settling currencies would be needed if humanity is ever to become a multiplanetary species or colonize worlds outside our solar system. Bitcoin was first to solve the Byzantine Generals Problem – a way to coordinate trust among people separated by time, distance and motivations – and fiat hasn’t. We don’t know how UAPs work, and there are plenty of reasons to doubt what has been said about them. Grusch contradicted himself saying he both had access and was denied Pentagon intelligence on UAPs. And so much of the supposed eye-witness accounts of flying saucers can already be explained by faulty sensors on military aircraft. But I’d bet a dollar that if aliens exist, and they’re as barbaric as us to need money, their cash would be “digital” and inherently trustworthy. It’d be impossible to enforce the rule of law on Mars. So wouldn’t you at least want a currency you could trust?'

  @LeonidasNFT @krakenfx Narrative is bullish but don’t ignore the setup: AI hype tends to mean fast rotations, so watch volume and entry timing before “cost-averaging.” What’s your invalidation point if $DOG chops down?

  "Which crypto platform should I use?" is the most common question I get asked by UK clients. It's also the wrong first question. The better one: what risk am I actually taking on by using this platform? @coinbase , @krakenfx and @Revolut can all be useful access points. They are not the same tool. Coinbase: simple on-ramp for beginners. UK-regulated, smooth interface, custody handled for you, which is also the catch. Kraken: more control for informed buyers and larger positions. Cleaner withdrawals, but the operational complexity bites people who never move past the beginner phase. Revolut: convenient for small amounts and existing app users. It was built as a bank that does crypto, not as a place you'd hold for years. The mistake is treating "easy access" as the same thing as "good structure." The platform is only the entry point. Before you pick one, the questions that actually decide whether the platform fits: 1. How long do I plan to hold? 2. How much will I deposit? 3. Will I move funds off the platform? 4. Do I need bank-style cash management? 5. Who else needs to access this if something happens to me? 6. Do I have a record of how I funded the deposit? 7. Have I talked to my tax adviser about reporting it? For small first steps, convenience can be fine. For serious capital, convenience is not a strategy. Crypto access is easy now. Crypto structure is still where most people make expensive mistakes.
