Should I stop using Coinbase?

7 Nov 2023 1 minute read 4 comments LeftFooted

I like Coinbase. I think it has its issues but, generally speaking, it's a safe place for your assets. I guess that explains why I've got $25 worth of Coinbase at the moment. But all jokes aside, I'm a bit mad at CB this morning because, for the um...

LeoFinance rebranded to InLeo, a social media-style platform that looks and feels a lot like X, aka Twitter. I know that some of you use Leo and so I'm sure most of you will know by now. I personally like the upgrade, but will it work? The old ver...

There's a new airdrop in town and it's called NYM (NYM), and it is available on Coingecko. It costs 50 candies and since I've got like 2,000 and have no idea what to do with them, and since I couldn't fall back to sleep this morning at 6 AM. I sign...

This year and last year, I was able to attend a Web 3.0/crypto conference in Belgrade, Serbia and to cut a very long story very short, on the third and final day of the event, I managed to walk home with a box full of energy drinks as well as cans of...

My funds are stuck due to a design flaw of the Coinbase platform

30 Oct 2023 1 minute read 2 comments LeftFooted

Coinbase is heavily regulated, and it is regulated in the US. This means that the number of cryptos and tokens available on the platform, the exchange, varies all the time. Most cryptos remain supported in the web 3.0 wallet even when they're gone...
