  @ApeDurden Only real ones remember the guy that bought like 3 btc of $KIDS token on Cryptopia at 6 satoshi but there were 0 sell orders in the orderbook so it was impossible to sell it.

  Scams (2016–2019): Mostly Ponzi schemes and fake projects (Bitconnect, OneCoin, PlusToken). Mismanagement/Hacks (2014–2019): Weak custody led to catastrophic hacks (Mt. Gox, Cryptopia). Leverage & Risk (2022): A wave of collapses tied to contagion from Terra/LUNA and 3AC, exposing reckless lending practices. Fraud (2022): FTX revealed how lack of transparency and misuse of customer funds can devastate the entire ecosystem. @RichardHeartWin

  @ftm_sharmoot In the 2017-2020 cycle I went from a couple hundred invested here and there to something like $30k and back down. That includes some funds I had to write off from Cryptopia. Coming in to 2021 I had about $5-10k in crypto. 2021 turned that into life changing money.

  As someone who has lost about $5-10,000 in cryptocurrency (**** you @Cryptopia_NZ) , if you invest in a deregulated market, you accept the risk. Doesn't mean that those guilty shouldn't be punished. Does mean that you also hold yourself to blame. #FTX #cryptopia

  After the Coldcard hack the vultures arrived on schedule, circling in perfect formation, announcing that self custody is de facto dead. You've read the posts. If only these poor souls had kept their coins "on an exchange," none of this would have happened. Adults said this out loud, in public, with their real names attached. So let's do the thing nobody circling the corpse wanted to do. Let's look at the data. 🔴 Mt. Gox — 2014 Hot-wallet theft + years of mismanagement → insolvency ~850,000 BTC (~200k later recovered) 🔴 Bitfinex — 2016 Hot wallet breach ~119,756 BTC 🔴 Coincheck — 2018 Hot wallet breach (NEM) ~523M XEM (~USD 530M then) 🔴 Zaif — 2018 Hot wallet breach ~5,966 BTC + other assets (~USD 60M) 🔴 QuadrigaCX — 2018–19 Not a classic hack: founder death + "inaccessible" cold wallets; monitor found big shortfall / suspected fraud ~26,000 BTC + other coins (~CAD 190–250M+) 🔴 Cryptopia — 2019 Hacked, then liquidation (BTC + alts) ~USD 16M+ initially reported 🔴 Binance — 2019 Hot wallet breach 7,000 BTC (~USD 40M — SAFU covered users) 🔴 KuCoin — 2020 Hot wallets breached ~USD 275M mixed tokens 🔴 BitMart — 2021 Hot wallets breached ~USD 150–200M mixed 🔴 FTX / Alameda — 2022 Fraud & insolvency; customer funds misused ~USD 8–10B shortfall 🔴 DMM Bitcoin — 2024 Unauthorized outflow 4,502.9 BTC (~USD 300M+) 🔴 WazirX — 2024 Multisig / custody breach ~USD 230–235M mixed 🔴 Bybit — 2025 Cold-wallet / signer exploit ~401,000 ETH (~USD 1.4–1.5B), not BTC-led Custodial and protocol heists together — centralized exchanges plus DeFi and bridges — run into the tens of billions of dollars over their lifetime at event prices, with single bad years clearing USD 2–3B in hacks alone. That's not counting fraud, insolvency, or the founder who dies with the keys in his head. One Coldcard wave: roughly USD 0.04–0.07B. Do the division. Very rough math puts Coldcard at somewhere between 0.1% and 1% of a single bad year, and comfortably under 1% of lifetime headline losses from exchanges and DeFi combined. It is a rounding error. It is the tip you leave on the bill for everything else that got stolen this decade. And it is being used as an argument to hand your keys back to the same institutions that produced the top of that table. But I'm not going to end on a smug ratio, because something about this genuinely bothers me. The people who lost money here were not degens. They weren't farming yield on a bridge held together with hope and a Discord moderator. They were the careful ones — the people who read the guides, bought the hardware, wrote the words down on steel, and did everything the responsible adults told them to do. Playing it safe is exactly what got them hit. That's the part that stings, and anyone selling you a custodial account off the back of their pain should be treated accordingly. The conclusion doesn't move, though. Verify your entropy, verify your seed on a second implementation, stop trusting single black boxes — and understand that from a strict safety analysis, your funds have never been safer than in self custody.

  I’ll pull the real history on each exchange. I remember a story back then for every one of those names: • MintPal got hacked, then “saved” by a guy calling himself Alex Green. A few weeks later the BTC was gone, the site was gone, and Alex Green was just Ryan Kennedy with a new name. People were watching their coins walk out of a wallet that was supposed to be cold storage. • EtherDelta was supposed to be the opposite of that. No custody. Your keys. Then someone hijacked the DNS, stood up a clone site, and users typed their keys into a fake homepage. One person lost around $800k before anyone even noticed the chat button was missing. • Cryptopia got hit in January 2019. Site goes into maintenance. Then liquidation. Then years of Grant Thornton emails, claim portals, and people still waiting while lawyers argued over whether their coins were even theirs. Some finally got a distribution years later. • Poloniex was the altcoin casino everyone used. Then it socialized losses, Circle bought it, Circle dumped it, US users got kicked, and the brand kept changing hands until it barely looked like the same place. • Bittrex lasted longer than most. Then the SEC showed up, the US arm wound down, Global went into liquidation, and customers were filling out proof-of-debt forms for balances they used to withdraw with one click. That was the game. You left coins on an exchange and hoped the website came back tomorrow. We have come a long way.

  @InkSpireMusic Tbh the first BTC purchase was lost on a site called Cryptopia circa 2014. After losing all those funds due to some scammy stuff I took a break until discovering TRUST wallet which was a BNB native wallet. This was when Eth gas GWEI was upwards of 50/100$ or so lol

  @Moon1ightSt Someone who joined X in 2021 knows little about Justin Sun dumping HT tokens from $10 to $2.23. He damaged Gala token investors with pgala. His FUD token addressed FTX debt. In 2019, he refused to help Cryptopia CEX investors recover their TRX. He never does anything for people!

  A crypto exchange gets hacked, causing the exchange to liquidate its assets, thereby making users unable to access their crypto, as was the case with Cryptopia. #DigifinexAirdrop

  I did pretty good then it got shut down so I moved into crypto so I could leverage. I mined bitcoin with an ant miner S9 funded my trading accounts. Got wiped out with South Exchange, Cryptopia, and the good ol’ Control Finance(if yk yk). I created a trading strategy that works🧵

  Indeed. I'd like to think that those blue chips I mentioned are just more of an anti-inflation funds short term and retirement funds long term. I started with those 3 almost at almost at the same time but I'm still down with $ETN even with the DCA.. a big factor was Cryptopia. No one lost in $BTC and $XRP if they haven't sold. About Solana, it's just thriving on the memes as I have observed.. If ETN ever comes up with a way to make the real whales and influencers with huge following to be onboarded, then we can see growth.

  I started using Cryptopia and probably bought like half the coins listed on that exchange. The problem was alot of these coins weren't supported by the big crypto wallet companies so I had to keep most of them on Cryptopia. Further, I had no clue what counterparty risk was

  The market definitely also had its pitfalls and flaws back then. Navigating is something that was always needed. Both today and in the past. Yet despite all of the "pitfalls" mentioned below it still feels a far cry to the amount we have today. The scams of the OG influencers actually pumped for quite a while. (I know because when I was brand new I even followed YouTuber Suppoman to quickly buy the coin he mentioned which actually worked ONLY when you were trigger finger quick) ICO's surprisingly were very forgiven. Out of the 10 that launched, most actually launched at a profit and not a small bit either. In terms of exchanges luckily the smaller ones like Cryptopia didn't have that many users. Think most of us were trading on Bittrex (me) or Poloniex and upcoming Binance that made its entrance. FTX in 2022 and Luna, Celcius etc etc was a disaster though for many. But before 2022 I still consider the market easy mode compared to today. It all comes down that back then we had liquidity in abundance vs the amount of coins/tokens that launched. For every ICO there were 1000s that couldn't wait to get in. Today everyone is avoiding it like the plague (for good reason). The market was easier back then but the ENTRY was harder though. You were basically rewarded for taking the risk to get into it. When no one is there to mention anything about crypto to you, it's hard to take the plunge.
