Got to be fair things like this are going to put people off. Get someone scamming or stealing your credit card, phone CC company and, apart from a bit of hassle, you're not out of pocket.

Get your Bitcoin nicked and its gone and you've lost it.

It's likely that exchanges will start to offer the same kind of insurance as financial institutes, if the hodler hasn't been negligent with passwords, paid for by the fees they charge. i.e. The protection you get from more traditional money storage and transactions is paid for one way or another.

The risk will persist where as a crypto wallet owner you have no one to offer such protection, making storing on exchanges or crypto banks more attractive to Jo Public, and offering the institutions the same way of making money out of other people's.

Okay XRP what are you doing - you're are not supposed to be doing anything at the minute... Looks like it'll now rise to its last support level which is around 93 sats. Nonetheless it is a signal the bears are weakening for XRP.

Golden cross emerges.

Well I used to own ****inf XRP!

Yeah, the insurance premiums (if they really insure it rather than self-insure) will be real low

“Exchanges” are essentially “banks”, so with tulipcoins people will pay “banks” to keep their “money” safe, beats FIAT for sure

If only somebody could have predicted those risks in advance!

Don't exactly know what it means... however it is very interesting, on the 3-day chart you can see XRP have obeyed support & resistance on the upper trend line since way back in 2015. This tells you it is a very important trend line that will always cause some indecision when it is approached. Moreover a major uptrend in XRP has not begun until it touches the lower trend line. Fascinating... why am I sharing all this juicy info? Normally this would result in an invoice being written, which reminds me.. last month's timesheet still not written.

EOS airdrops

EOS airdrops

Anyone else receiving them? Got a quite a few now gathering up in my account. Free money!

Most are nonsense and then there's the odd interesting project, such as Parsl which was dropped as SEED. They are into supply chain management on the EOS blockchain. They'll be making 12 monthly airdrops.

Not holding any EOS at the moment so no
Currently waiting for BCH airdrop...will probably have to move the stash to binance to receive that.
before that happens though I think there's a dump and pump coming on the BCHBTC price
