Transferring Eth and now it’s gone?

I was transferring some eth from my coinbase into bitget but it never showed up in bitget. When I go to etherscan it shows that the value of the eth I transferred is somehow 0. Also, it doesn't display the address I sent it to, instead it shows a list of a bunch of transfers.…

PSA: We’ve discovered malware that replaces the crypto address you input without you knowing (not just clipboard replacement, way stealthier). Here’s how it works.

Hey everyone, LocalMonero is constantly on the lookout for new security threats that target our users. Around a week ago a user reported to us that the address that they specified when opening a trade wasn't actually the address to which the coins were sent to. Thinking this was a one-time fluke, the user opened…

Uniswap Coin’s Bullish Trajectory Sets UNI To Breach $7 Level – Time To Buy?

Upward trends in price charts bode well for Uniswap. CoinGecko reports that over the past 30 days, the token’s value has increased by 17.6 percent. The currency appreciated by 6.5% in value throughout the course of the week. As of this writing, UNI is still in an uptrend, and there are indications that the bullish momentum will continue, pushing the price of UNI into or over the $7 barrier mark. UNI’s gains are only one example of the several cryptocurrencies that took advantage of the market turmoil caused by the recent CPI report. Is the market getting carried away with its optimism, or can UNI’s positive momentum continue to the $7 resistance level?

That people are getting ready to sell again is a gloomy sign. During the September 21st UNI rally, the coin was rejected at the $7 price resistance level, providing evidence of this phenomenon. Currently, the momentum indicator is at 0.062. This is barely above the 0 line of neutrality. The RSI indicator currently rests at 52.61 and 50.24 correspondingly, indicating a deceleration. Even though the token’s movement is slowing, its predominant adherence to the XABCD shape may indicate more bullishness. However, the token has met a roadblock in its quest towards the $7 price area. The recent rejection of the token at $6.774 will present a difficulty in the coming days. Has The Adjustment Phase Begun? Chaikin’s money flow indicator shows that the bulls continue to control the market. At a value of 0.02, the bulls can use this to generate more momentum and eventually push the price towards $7. However, if bears seize control of the market, the $5.993 support line is their greatest defense against a possible reversal. Market corrections are typical for both stocks and cryptocurrencies. As a result of the rising level of foreign exchange reserves, investors and traders should be prepared for potential volatility in the next days or weeks.

Ep03- OneCoin – Companion Guide For BBC’s “The Missing Cryptoqueen” Podcast

Good news! Since OneCoin is back on the news and “The Missing Cryptoqueen” already released an 11th episode, proving that they’re back for real, we’re going to double down on our efforts. Starting today, we’ll summarize two episodes a week to catch up with the new developments in Dr. Ruja’s case. We hit the nail on the head on this one, and there’s nothing left to do but let the roulette roll and see where the OneCoin story takes us. Related Reading: Sam Bankman-Fried Eyes On Bidding For Celsius Assets In this episode, we learn that OneCoin’s internal slogan was “the greatest company ever” and Jamie Bartlett travels to Sofia, Bulgaria, to look at Dr. Ruja’s properties. This episode is free of mafia insinuations, it deals with the cultic aspects of OneCoin’s entrepreneurial culture instead. We’re also able to put a number on how big of a scam OneCoin really was. SPOILER ALERT: It was at least €4B big. Remember, you can download episodes directly from the BBC, or listen to “The Missing Cryptoqueen” through Apple, Spotify, or iVoox. About OneCoin And “The Missing Cryptoqueen’s” Episode Three The most exciting thing about “The Missing Cryptoqueen” is the sense of immediacy it conveys. It’s a living and breathing podcast. The story was happening all around Jamie Bartlett and the team. The OneCoin people react to “The Missing Cryptoqueen’s” creation and, through social media, attack the creators with everything they have. And the whole scene is part of the podcast. And this is just episode three. In the end, they even ask for the audience to call and tip them about Dr. Ruja’s whereabouts. This episode starts with Konstantin Ignatov, Dr. Ruja’s younger brother, personal assistant, and heir to the OneCoin crown. He was arrested by the FBI and charged with money laundering and fraud. The authorities had already declared OneCoin a fraud, even. Surprisingly, when Bartlett and the team visit the OneCoin headquarters, they realize that the company is still “open for business.” People are still buying OneCoin despite the fact that one of their leaders is on the run and the other was arrested. That leads us to the cult-like aspects of the operation. A faith-like belief justifies the disappearance of the leaders as a conspiracy to stop OneCoin. In the quote below, you will feel the silence while reading the description of the organization’s offices. You’ll feel the Dr. Ruja worship. It’s just one step away from religion and very near a cult.  Jamie Bartlett describes OneCoin as “less a cryptocurrency and more like a belief system.” An expert in that field corroborates the hypothesis.

In the second episode, we figured out that OneCoin called the critics “haters.” In this one, we learn that the investors and employees are instructed to keep away from them Scientology-style. Another surprising fact is that the second term OneCoin uses the most to describe its critics is “bitcoiner.” Those pesky bitcoiners, always causing trouble. We learn about the scale of the devastation that Dr. Ruja caused by hearing about the OneCoin Victims Support Group. The victims are broken, they’ve lost everything and then some. We also learn about the scale of the scam by way of a report/ database that producer Georgia Catt got her hands on. From all over the world, the organization was getting €60M a week. From August 2014 to March 2017, OneCoin’s revenue was over €4B. Over €100M were from the UK alone. And that’s where the report stops, the organization was still making money left and right. Quotes From “The Missing Cryptoqueen ’s” Episode Three – “More Than Just A Coin” An anonymous witness describing the OneCoin offices:  “At its peak, it was about 50 people working in the Sofia office. Ruja’s office is on the 4th floor. You never saw her without the gypsy earrings, the gowns, the jewelry, everything. Even when she’s just working in the office. Inside the Sofia office, the crypto center is where members of the OneLife network are allowed to meet members of the Sofia staff who are important. If you are out of favor, they won’t let you in, or they’ll keep you sitting there the whole day, waiting.  It’s set up almost like a cathedral. You don’t speak out loud, you whisper to each other. It’s all set in dark tones, everything is gilded. There was a big cardboard cutout of Ruja. You see people touching it and doing that stupid OneCoin sign like it’s an icon. It’s gone now because it eventually fell apart because too many people were touching it. Dr. Ruja! Dr. Ruja! The biggest insult that you can give OneLife is to say: “that’s not Dr. Ruja’s vision.” Bitcoin-enthusiast Timothy Curry, describing the cult of personality behind Dr. Ruja: “There were many cultish things that the company did. The repetitive indoctrination. If you look at the top leaders, the way they dress, the way that they showed things off. Ceremonial things, almost like, especially on stage. Everything, from the musical introductions to Ruja, to the theatrics, they really did create a worship behind her.” OneCoin Material And Episode Credits Six years ago, while OneCoin conquered the world, NewsBTC quoted the infamous Roger Ver speaking on the case. Then known as a “bitcoin evangelist,” the controversial figure denounced OneCoin for what it is:  “In a recent interview, the owner of Bitcoin.com says he believes OneCoin is a fraud, and that investors should always be wary of new coins and read up before they put their money in things they don’t understand: “There is never a cryptocurrency without a wallet. This sounds like more evidence of its fraudulent nature. OneCoin isn’t traded on a single exchange anywhere in the world as far as I know.” OneCoin has been around for over two years, but questions surrounding its authenticity continue to plague the Internet.” Say what you will about Roger Ver, but the man was right on the money on this one.
