Crypto Tips Unplugged: The Dangers of Centralization

heiditravels (73)in #bitcoin • 6 years ago (edited)

Let's take a look at what's been happening with some of the popular centralized exchanges and how these issues are being addressed with decentralized exchanges.

I also address why this is something you need to take seriously and look further into preparing yourself to use decentralized exchanges.

Even decentralized exchanges - when you go from crypto to fiat - must use bank transfer (fiat from buyer to seller). What about fiat-crypto ATMs?

same in Germany - our major exchange (bitcoin.de) hands out kyc data to police WITHOUT Warrant, signature of court

https://netzpolitik.org/2017/bitcoin-de-gibt-nutzerdaten-an-polizei-weiter-auch-ohne-richterlichen-beschluss/

unfortunately there are few alternatives for German native speakers. You gotta be fluent in English. That is actually a sad thing for crypto worldwide adoption. #languagebarrier

i think right now it is more about drug dealing

let see how hard "Hatespeech" (deutsch: Hassrede) is prosecuted in 2018/2019. Tendence: getting harder.

Probably there will be soon tax evasion issues. social welfare for migrants gotta be paid.

did you saw the case of kevin? the guy who threw bacon at a mosk and was executed while in jail in bristol? it's funny, the pakistanis and royals pedo rapists have all free pass, but them....

yeah yeah... will see... one sure thing, those behind the white genocide will pay... one day... be it by their chosen people replacers, or by US...

in both event... they are done. when is the only question.

i heard a 40B euros / year that those guys sucks? while raping...

what I hate the most about the msm, and when I say hate, is I can watch them being turned to hash in a oven in front of me, with a smile, is when they don't care about all those girls raped in germany, uk and co, worst how they cover for the rapists...

happilly with have now the same tools they will use to attempt to censor us, aka AI to scan all their work, and see who are the most domestic enemies...

and if you had asset seizure of the media operative and their financial backers, it makes a big loot, at least worth pursuing....

it's war.

you also decentralize diversifying using several exchanges (regardless they are centralized or not); decentralized exchanges can be scams and existing ones are gaining thrust very slowly since they are of/from no-one and therefore if you do not do KYC you also cannot KnowYourServiceProviderExchange better than centralized ones, they core values and even if they are supporting opposite values to your owns. Baby steps, as in BTC each person/node owns his own truth until the big picture is betters understood and new choices can be done in your own trust/confidence alone.
