The crypto world is not standing still. It is growing. But the shadows of the past are still with us. Do you remember the loud scams?



Mt.Gox. Pioneer. 2014, 850,000 bitcoins vanished into thin air. Like they never existed. Cryptsy? The founders pocketed the money and poof. BTC-e was shut down for money laundering. Dirty business.

QuadrigaCX is quite a story. The founder disappeared, $190 million client funds went with him. Like into thin air. WEX seemed to try to replace BTC-e, but the reputation is not great. BitGrail? Hacked for $195 million. Boom, and there’s no money.

FTX. Oh, this FTX. The giant collapsed in 2022. They say, embezzlement. Who would have thought?

Trust has been undermined, this is a fact. But the market seems to be holding on. New projects, new ideas. Maybe we will pull through?

And you? Have you been burned on these exchanges? What have you learned? It would be interesting to hear.
