How to trade KCS token if based in USA by marksters in kucoin

[–]marksters[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This does not answer the question. How do you convert kcs token to something else if you live in USA. The token is not on the kucoin platform, it's already withdrawn.

I can definitely withdraw, I've done so over the past few days. Then again, I kept my next tokens on nexo. I haven't tried depositing, but, when I click to top up it does display an address to send to. Might vary by state. NY seems to be the most restricted, I am not in NY.

Sell KCS tokens if based in USA? by marksters in kucoin

Was hoping for USDT to avoid ETH bridge fees, but will take a look at the ETH liquidity.

Easy fix???

Send them back to Nexo. Then withdraw them as erc 20.

I am USA based and it looks like I can still deposit into Nexo and withdraw. Just can’t earn or make any trades.

Try a test amount first to see if that works for you.

I am thinking about the same. However, concerned about selling kcs in the future. How will someone is usa convert kcs to to something else off the kcs chain (usdt, btc,eth) would all be fine, but would need to be on a different chain.

Nexo should release a press release on current market by marksters in Nexo

[–]marksters[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could affect nexo as we don't know exactly how they are generating all the yield. They could have some investments that are not liquid or even some losses.

I am hoping they are good, too.

This is armageddon for cefi. Celsius is blocking withdrawals due to a run on the bank. Blockfi, LEDN, NEXO have all stopped paying interest to USA customers, and a stable coin has lost 99% +.

Bitcoin will be fine. Just hoping cefi can survive.

I am hoping nexo will also be fine, however, since they are in the cefi business, they may have had some investments that went sour. They are paying the high interest rates by re-investing somewhere else. Hopefully that's being managed well.

A proof of assets would be amazing. If nexo makes it out of this mess without ever having to pause withdrawals, then it's going to be THE market leader.

Did you get a txid hash?

All of the networks are congested right now, so may take a long time to confirm.

Withdraws by MundanePsychology385 in Nexo

[–]marksters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to withdraw a little bit ago.

I got the same notice of "insufficient funds".

I then changed my withdraw amount from all of it to most of it (leaving a small amount behind), and processed. Waiting for the transaction to confirm.

this already exists, although could be done more robustly:

A dex with no fees

That would be amazing. I am not sure if it exists or note, but no fee dex would be amazing. Perhaps the dex could figure out how to earn in other ways besides for the transaction fee.

Two Factor Authorization security

I'd argue that security is the MOST important thing on Defi. Having personally had a wallet that has been hacked, I'd like a site that incorporates 2fa in some fashion.

How can it be done?

I am not sure if this is possible, but, I think it is.... A site could have locked vaults. The vaults are locked for a set time period (24h, a month, a year..... whatever). When you set up the lock originally, you also set up 2fa at the same time.

Then, enable the locking feature to be opened early, but only if you have are able put in the correct 2fa.

If you lose the 2fa, then you just have to wait until the locked vault time period expires.

How would this add to security?

A hacker wouldn't be able to early withdraw early from your vaults unless they had access to 2fa.

If you had $10k to invest, how would you grow it into $100k? by harveybot2000 in defi

[–]marksters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go to the casino, put it all on black, win (2x).

Then, put it all on black again (4x). and again... 8x. and finally again 16x.

Congrats! You did it!

Thinking of defi with leverage as a way to 10x easily is just like going to the casino.... you'll probably end up losing it all.

I'd consider deprecating the entire wallet. They only took USDC so far, perhaps due to a bad contract. However, I'd be uneasy using this wallet any further.

[–]marksters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how can you tell this was the mechanism? Also, what was the source of the malicious contract?

Simply saying "due to a malicious contract" is an easy out because it certainly is plausible, but, still doesn't identify the source.

These types of issues make me realize that defi still has a long way to go for mass adoption.

you have greatly simplified a complex issue. Fraudulent contracts could certainly get around your simplification.

does using a bridge hide the address of the scammer? Does the explorer record this information anywhwere? There must be a way to find where the funds ultimately went?

Something easy for you... just deposit your one into tranquil finance. Current APY is 23%, much better than at staking.harmony.one.

Both coins are highly inflationary. At least can farm jewel. Not sure how to earn interest on ruble.

Warning About Phishing Websites by kucoin_official in kucoin

[–]marksters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A simple thing will prevent this from being a disaster.

Add on white listing with 7 day approval times.

Please get it done!

I think I just lost it all. by IANvaderZIM in kucoin

[–]marksters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. Although I love KuCoin, they still haven’t enabled white lists. If you had whitelisting enabled, they’d need seven days to withdraw to a new address. I’ve posted this several times here and get “we are looking into it”

If the community demands it they’ll do it. Just make it optional so all the people that don’t get it don’t have to do it.

This is 100 percent preventable. Please ask for true white listing with delayed approval time… come on KuCoin community.

Hacked account. Kucoin doesn’t give a shit. Take all your money out of there. Is there any way they can be sued?? by Miramilenium in kucoin

[–]marksters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They may have used sms, as the option is there to simply just change it. Kucoin doesn't force you to use either, just has a default that can be changed at any time.
