Lol, good thing to see that some things never change and you are still crying about Bitcoin with the same stupid arguments.

If half of the fiat to crypto transactions fail, maybe your definition of professional isn’t very accurate. Not saying you are dishonest and try to deceive people but again, anyone can use google and find out.

Good to see scammers angry about being exposed and can’t reply anything other than ad hominem insults. Thanks for showing the face of the crypto scammer.

You are quite delusional thinking you have privacy online. But you have been deliberately saying that word as you will now swap to the word pseudonimous… we had this conversation before.

Not sure how you are doing transactions without Internet but when I need comedy, I always come to find you here and talk about crypto. Epic. You’d make more money with comedy shows about crypto.

No, the event was the loss of around $30 Billion worth of crypto by an exchange formerly run by sam bankman fried.

There is a satellite, you can also use HAM radio in certain areas.

That was epic too, not sure if those crypto exchanges are just a parody or really mean it.

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

My viewpoint is BTC won’t make much profit from an investor holding it perspective. I only use it when i want to do private transactions, How is that scamming?
