    Technically, Coinbase is correct! Not your keys, not your coins!

    LocalMonero to shut down P2P exchange after seven years of operation

    strong opinions and well-meant advises have no value unless they are backed by one's resources and risk - so once again boys... what did you do? what are you willing to lose? pathetic

    Where would you move if you had a Family?
