  @blknoiz06 Ltc Pairs on cryptopia, ICO vamps and fakes on etherdelta to this day the worst UX in all of tek ( catching wrong 0’s still goated though ) wanchain and bundled scams. Inaccessible “launchpads” that where more rigged than any whitelist and seed round nowadays. Actual devs booby trapping any pow coin so not only you got rugged, your whole stack ( and pc with all your info tbh ) could get drained in an instant. I had ( and still hold somwhere ) a dozen chromebocks all labeled “biohazard” for experiments. Alqo still goated and made me though. Now you just burn one of your million hot wallets and move on. Paper wallets. Actual paper wallets you had to print. Yes. With a physical printer. “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 deains and exploits everywhere. Plus you actually had to THINK. Not fnf fortnite style, think and tinker and try and take a leap of faith at some point. I remember the rabbithole launch night of YFI launch, having to try Compound and Balancer and a hlaf a dozen protocols and feeling like Einstain and Columbus and Tesla all wrapped up in one. A new world being disocvered. And we didn’t have the tooling we have now, you either had very, very good dev friends who also never slept, or you got ****** at every move and just gambled with it all. Nah it wasn’t ******* easy. And the plumbers where ******* ninjas I guess. And it WAS romantic. And exciting. And everything else you can think of. I have stories for days, I haven’t even srmcratxhed the surface. Could fill a book with it and at some point I might. I am forever grateful and forever broken because of this decade. It has been the most stimulating and wild environment my kid self could ever imagine.

  @shakepay Since being a previous customer of QuadrigaCX, I've been a huge advocate of self custody. Mt. Gox, Cryptopia, Celsius, BlockFi, FTX, and others continue to give us reasons why self custody is so important. Not your keys, not your crypto. Shaketag: fullofdumplins

  @imgislost @Coinicarus @SamouraiWallet Getting Orange Pilled is a process…. I bought my first Bitcoin in 2017, then got involved in mining, then ‘day trading’ on Bittrex, Binance & Cryptopia (aka gambling on Mcafee tweets)... Then spent some time participating in DAOs on Etherum before doing DevRel for a Bitcoin L2 - that's where i learned about BitVM and ZK which lead me down the privacy rabbit hole…. so yes, i know about Samourai Wallet, but it wasn't until i was 6 years deeps. She’ll get there eventually…. Hopefully with some guidance from the community she can get there quicker. 🧡

  [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

  2017 •BTC-e – One of the longest-running Bitcoin exchanges, shut down in July 2017 after U.S. authorities seized servers and charged the operator with money laundering. •Bitfinex (partial failure) – Not a full shutdown, but in 2017 it was still recovering from its massive 2016 hack and issued BFX tokens to cover losses. •Yobit, Cryptopia (issues began) – Not total collapse yet, but operational and withdrawal issues started to appear in late 2017. ⸻ 2018 •Coincheck – Hacked in January 2018 for ~$530 million in NEM, one of the largest crypto thefts ever. The exchange halted withdrawals for months, damaging trust. •MapleChange – Canadian exchange that vanished in November 2018 after claiming it was hacked; widely regarded as an exit scam. •Bitsane – Popular for XRP trading, became inaccessible in mid-2018 with user funds gone. •Liqui – Ceased operations in 2018 due to “lack of liquidity” after the bear market hit. •QuadrigaCX (problems started) – In 2018, withdrawal delays and banking issues escalated; it fully collapsed in early 2019. •Cryptopia – New Zealand exchange that began having serious operational issues in late 2018, then was hacked and shut down in early 2019.

  @ftm_sharmoot In the 2017-2020 cycle I went from a couple hundred invested here and there to something like $30k and back down. That includes some funds I had to write off from Cryptopia. Coming in to 2021 I had about $5-10k in crypto. 2021 turned that into life changing money.

  I’ll pull the real history on each exchange. I remember a story back then for every one of those names: • MintPal got hacked, then “saved” by a guy calling himself Alex Green. A few weeks later the BTC was gone, the site was gone, and Alex Green was just Ryan Kennedy with a new name. People were watching their coins walk out of a wallet that was supposed to be cold storage. • EtherDelta was supposed to be the opposite of that. No custody. Your keys. Then someone hijacked the DNS, stood up a clone site, and users typed their keys into a fake homepage. One person lost around $800k before anyone even noticed the chat button was missing. • Cryptopia got hit in January 2019. Site goes into maintenance. Then liquidation. Then years of Grant Thornton emails, claim portals, and people still waiting while lawyers argued over whether their coins were even theirs. Some finally got a distribution years later. • Poloniex was the altcoin casino everyone used. Then it socialized losses, Circle bought it, Circle dumped it, US users got kicked, and the brand kept changing hands until it barely looked like the same place. • Bittrex lasted longer than most. Then the SEC showed up, the US arm wound down, Global went into liquidation, and customers were filling out proof-of-debt forms for balances they used to withdraw with one click. That was the game. You left coins on an exchange and hoped the website came back tomorrow. We have come a long way.

  @BinanceEvavvvva @binance Always! I understand people are just a little skeptical on the issues since Cryptopia goes missing, FTX collapse etc but they have to realize that Binance is way ahead of its game, i wouldn't even think twice to be worried.

  @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. 🧡

  There have been a lot of crypto scams. Early on the media proclaimed that it was what criminals used. There have been a lot of collapses. FTX wasn’t all that long ago. Cryptopia in New Zealand filed for bankruptcy. HashFlare in Estonia was a Ponzi scheme. More recently there was the Hawk-tua-girl related rug pull. There have been a lot of rug pulls. In people’s minds it’s all connected to Bitcoin. Saylor talks about the infinite money glitch. People can’t understand how that’s not a house of cards or a Ponzi scheme. There has been so much noise blocking the signal that people just tune it all out. For those of us who can filter out the noise it’s obvious.

  I started using Cryptopia and probably bought like half the coins listed on that exchange. The problem was alot of these coins weren't supported by the big crypto wallet companies so I had to keep most of them on Cryptopia. Further, I had no clue what counterparty risk was

  @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

  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

  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.

  🌅 GM, Crypto Fam 🚨 A hard lesson every crypto investor should learn... I've had funds stuck on multiple exchanges over the years. The first one was Cryptopia, where I lost access to $700+ after the exchange shut down in 2019. I also had funds on these exchanges before they closed: • Cryptopia • ProBit • Mercatox • BitForex • Altilly • WEX • Hotbit • IDAX 💡 Lesson learned: Never keep 100% of your crypto on a single exchange. Diversify across trusted platforms, and for long-term holdings, use a self-custody wallet whenever possible. I learned this lesson the hard way. Hopefully, you won't have to.

  @mertbasarmayan @whodoneit21 Bro i feel it I lost money to cryptopia and ftx. Lost eth and rare Pepe cards to a broken computer when I was newer that ended up being quite a bit. It has definitely been hard and the only edge I’ve ever found was just trading “new tech” chainlink, NFTs, celestia, ai coins, etc
