  @secretsauce777 The problem is that I do not trust centralized platforms. Did you know that since the platform was hacked cryptopia i stopped using centralized platform It was a hard lesson for me because I lost more than 1.5 million with cryptopia exchange 😶😒

  @SigmaSquared_ TVL surges after exchange blowups is contradictory. A bit naive to think that normies in 2025 getting to experience yet another Cryptopia/FTX moment will suddenly restore faith in defi lmao, especially considering how **** this sector has fared in the last year

  2012 - mined 22,223 BTC and millions of DOGE in a pool with friends mostly a bunch of laptops 2014 - Mt Gox collapses 18,000 bitcoin gone 2018-2019 - Cryptopia hacked, more BTC gone all good was working for a $8B top 30 coin from 2016-2019 so it hurt but I wasn’t stacking bitcoin with that pay 2022 - FTX and Luna ****** my *** raw lots of capital wiped put a lot into several projects on BSC and farms Looking back I should be a billionaire today, and I should be giving mfers on here free money all day long. But instead I’m still chugging Our time comes when it comes I’ve been up majorly and down and up again. Am at the lowest I’ve been but still comfy I have faith this market goes majorly green this year this time I will take what I earned and do all the things I wanted to for so long.

  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.

  I have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges. My portfolio is spread as followed, to minimize risks: 20% MtGox 20% BTC-E 20% Cryptsy 20% Cryptopia 20% FTX Plan is to log in and cash out in 5 years

  @ck_SNARKs It's not the noobs but the people who have been around for ages falling for the same **** that's truly disappointing. Some of these guys are the same people who fell for the ICO scams and lost coins in Cryptopia and other altcoin casinos in 2017/2018 cycle.

  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

  @hodlonaut Wait... a scam in crypto without getting hacked in the aftermath? Do you not remember Cryptopia? They got hacked twice when they went down. The 2nd hack happened AFTER they had moved (allegedly) everything into cold storage. "hacked" in crypto = we've failed but we'll keep the $

  And let's not forget about exchange insolvency. In Jan 2019, the New Zealand-based #crypto exchange Cryptopia went into liquidation, leaving customers without access to their funds

  Urban Hacker (@realUrbanHacker) reported 38 minutes ago

  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.

  @SallyLondon7 @HuobiGlobal @justinsuntron Personally after Cryptopia crashed many of us asked Justin Sun to help recovery TRX He never replied never helped anybody. Sad is that Huobi was my favourite CEX. Now with Justin Sun and his empty promises, lies $pgala. I will probably leave big trades elsewhere. Big Risk Huobi

  3) The positive: I was never dependent on one specific place and their offerings on coins. Blockfi, #binance    #Coinbase #KuCoin where some exchanges I got on early in the game, so when Cryptopia went down it took only 5-10% of my 💰which always hurts but did not kill me

  @Vikingobitcoin9 I bet if you found a good accountant you can track it all down. I get it though. I still have stuff from Cryptopia. Wouldn’t be fun, but counting your taxes with something else other than 0 is ideal.

  🌅 GM, Crypto Fam 🚨 A hard lesson every crypto investor should learn... I've had funds stuck on multiple exchanges over the years. The first one was Cryptopia, where I lost access to $700+ after the exchange shut down in 2019. I also had funds on these exchanges before they closed: • Cryptopia • ProBit • Mercatox • BitForex • Altilly • WEX • Hotbit • IDAX 💡 Lesson learned: Never keep 100% of your crypto on a single exchange. Diversify across trusted platforms, and for long-term holdings, use a self-custody wallet whenever possible. I learned this lesson the hard way. Hopefully, you won't have to.
