So is this crypto stuff dead in the water now or what? so many big exchanges going down, so many scams, so much money lost. Im surprised BC is still at 22k all things considered.

Alt Crypto was always going to end up this way, read my posts from 5 years ago

Bitcoin is valuable still because it's actually useful.

Bought some bitcoin a few weeks ago, and it's been going up since. First time that's happened! Usually it's the other way! Wish I'd bought more

According to some "analysts" based on historical data BTC should be slowly going up again as it heads towards the next bullrun if history repeats that is

Key word is using it, not hoarding it. In that way, I guess I am dumb. Could probably be a thousandaire by now if I kept it all.

I know, most of the guys I purchase from use e-transfer, not sure why this particular grower was so paranoid to use BTC, he lives in BC ffs

Ah damn. Shakepay worse way to go with all their fees and shitty fills.

Just as a note for everyone else. Binance P2P has almost no fee for on ramp and off ramp. But most sellers/buyers on the p2p market prefer to deal with usdt instead of btc/eth. But once you get usdt on the platform you can easily buy coin of your choice without having to deal with shitty pricing on any of the canadian exchanges

localbitcoins is the easiest for me now that exchanges are all gone (I used to go to give cash in person lol). The prices are obviously better than ATM, but aren't great. I'll check this binance out

Are you still in Hong Kong? P2p marketplace for Binance in hong kong has a million places you can walk in with cash to do your transaction.

CEX might be bad guy in the space but it has it purpose.
