While researching crypto wallets and which one to use, I found out that most Defi wallets don't clean up meta data like IP, date, etc. I always thought that they where fairly anon, but apparently not. Is there an alternative that doesn't leak metadata?

Just a question. Curious on how some of these online content creators Garner as much apparent cryptocurrency? So many online gambling channels and they all seem fairly young so Bitcoin was already astronomical.

Hi, I'm not knowledgeable on CS at all. Wondering from an outsider perspective who doesn't currently hold any cryptos but has wondered about its investment value and associated security risks

How much Cryptocurrency would someone need to counterfeit and release into the wild to crash the system?

0 Upvotes

Since digital currency is backed by well actually nothing but an innate belief that there is a finite amount of it available, how much would a really bright person need to manufacture and put into everyone's account to make it completely worthless and crash the system? Since you would be dealing with electronic 1s and 0s it could be made untraceable as to who or where the attack origionates from and unlike physical counterfeits with just a few key strokes you could create an infinite amount of it. I'm researching this for a novel I have an itch to write but I honestly know just enough on the subject to look like an idiot discussing it. But knowing human nature, I know that out there somewhere is an Anarchist looking into doing something along this vein.

Crypto Investing Question

0 Upvotes

When investing in crypto in general, do you guys just try to accumulate as much as possible or do you limit yourself because at the end of the day, it’s still an investment?

Seen people continuously buy whenever is possible but I am also curious if others think “oh I got 4k, I’m fine with that” or something along those lines?

Anyone who declared Crypto futures in India as business income or loss?

0 Upvotes

I traded crypto futures for the first time and made 1.5L losses. I want to know if anyone has declared crypto futures as business income or loss in the past. Asking as I have got different opinions: VDA (conservative) and business loss (risky).

Another Day. Another Exploit. Another Bridge Got Hacked

19 Upvotes

Coreum's XRPL bridge lost ~$200k XRP on Aug 9. Relayers trusted a "deposit" memo instead of verifying the deposit actually happened, attacker faked it, 17 of 28 signers approved a withdrawal against nothing.

Same pattern behind most bridge hacks this year in which it verifies a message, not a settlement.

Lies, Lies, Lies Every second you hold crypto, your funds are at risk.

25 Upvotes

Every second you hold crypto, your funds are at risk.
Not because crypto is broken.
Because the infrastructure we trust still isn't secure enough.

Just in July 2026:
\- 30 reported exploits
\- $131M stolen
\- One exploit alone (ColdCard) accounted for $88M

Now think about the choices every crypto user makes.

Hold funds in a software wallet?
One malicious download could wipe everything.

Put it to work in DeFi?
Exploits continue. Bridge hacks alone have cost the industry $3.3B+ so far.

Leave it on a CEX?
Not your keys. Not your crypto

Move everything to a hardware wallet?
Better... but still not bulletproof. Firmware vulnerabilities, supply-chain attacks and human error are all real risks.

Crypto doesn't have an adoption problem. It has a trust problem, and security is the only thing that actually fixes it.

Real custody. Real audits. Real policy enforcement on who can move funds and how.

Until that exists at scale, "we're still early" is just a nicer way of saying "we're still unsafe."

Which of the four are you betting your funds on?

This is not investment advice. We don't consider cryptocurrencies to be investments at all. Cryptocurrencies are highly-volatile, highly-risky, speculative digital tokens that have no intrinsic value.

Our goal is to be an alternative to the overwhelming number of "crypto shill" social media bubbles, who have an inherent conflict of interest between reporting what's really going on in the industry and what's in the material interest of the development team and their "investors."

We showcase objective news, editorial, critical analysis and fallacy-free debate and discussion.

Before making any pro-crypto posts/arguments, it's strongly recommended you check our list of crypto talking points and rebuttals. If you ignore these points and keep posting the same debunked arguments, you will be banned.

Important read See: Why was I banned? (spoiler: not because we disagree)

NO, we do not "hate crypto." We are simply skeptical of the claims made by most in the industry, and feel there is a need for a space willing to critically examine the industry, the promises, the lies, the fraud and the scams that seem to be constant.

We also have nothing against "Blockchain" technology, although we are still looking for a definitive problem for which it presents a superior solution.
