scam fake phishing email “Your Apple ID has been locked for security reasons. To unlock it, you must verify your identity.”

Be careful folks. This email below and many similar one will bypass your junk spam email because your email will not capture it due to the fact that the email was encrypted with garbage characters but your email html format will actually display it in plain english words like below.

Do not click on the link from any email, do not click on link from sms text messages on your phone, do not click on link from any social media messages even on mobile phone, chances are those links will take you to a fake website that replicate the real website and you will not notice even looking the domain quickly. Let say the domain is apple.com but the hacker could have it as apple.com.applesupporthello.com so you notice the apple.com at the front but that’s not the real domain, also it could also be aapplle.com for example. So becareful folks, make sure your pay attention to the spelling. It’s the fundamental of understanding the correct domain name spelling to avoid getting scammed phishing attack.

Dear Customer

Your Apple ID has been locked for security reasons. To unlock it,
you must verify your identity.

Pay your Bitcoin Crypto currencies tax folks, you can’t get away for long before IRS government will catch up to you. Tax requirement for 2019 included a question “did you own any cryptocurrencies like bitcoin” don’t lied they will get you. It is the right thing to do if you earn money, the profit would be taxable. You will not go to jail for not filing taxes, but you will go to jail and hit with fines for not reporting the truth, don’t risk it. If you profit $10k of cryptos, then maybe about $2500 tax which left you with $7500 in your pocket I think that’s fair, you have nothing to worry about after paying $2500 tax. That $2500 go to good cause like safety in your country, the road, health and so on, stop thinking about how bad the governments are and how they spend your money that’s negative thinking, if you think there’s other places countries that can do better than America USA then leave go to that country or where ever you think is better, GO! just kidding, but the truth is you’re in better hand in American USA than other countries, trust me I’ve been to many other countries all over the world and I think America USA is the best, just live your life be happy, follow the law.

How to easily split your Bitcoin Cash ABC SV etc.? prevent possible loss due to double spending attack

Let take Bitcoin SV for example as the latest in Bitcoin Cash to Bitcoin SV hard fork. Although Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash was another hard fork but that happened long time ago and you probably have those Bitcoin Cash already one way or another. So with Bitcoin Cash wallet you have today, let say you stored in a hardware wallet like Ledger Nano S then you can down Electrum SV and do your coin splitting there, it’s a quick process under the split option just click on it, don’t worry it’s not that easy to loose your coin from here. Once the split is done in Electrum SV, now you have Electrum SV coins balance showing, now you need to move your Bitcoin SV to a new wallet.

To move your Bitcoin SV to a new wallet, you can set up a new Bitcoin SV wallet also using Electrum SV on another computer and move your BSV there, once it’s moved you might want to consider getting another hardware wallet or paper wallet for Bitcoin SV for safe keeping your coins off line (cold storage) this way it’s impossible to hack remotely.

Now on your Bitcoin Cash wallet that you just split the Bitcoin SV, you need to move those Bitcoin Cash also to a new wallet was well. You can just Bitcoin Cash Electrum or whatever wallet to move it to temporary. Then reset your hardware wallet to a new Bitcoin Cash wallet that have different seeds or private key, then move your Bitcoin Cash back there.

The above steps end result should have both your Bitcoin SV and Bitcoin cash stored in different offline cold storage wallet, impossible to hack remotely. Wallah! now you have both coins stored offline cold storage nothing to worry about. Always use hardware or paper wallet to store your coins, never use any online service for cold storage. Highly recommend hardware wallet like Ledger Nao, Trezor, and so on …

Just to summarized the above, when there’s a hard fork to a coin you have holding (balance), you will get free coins. To claim the coins you need to split it, and then move the split coins and the original coins to new wallets. Long term hold of your coins should be stored offline paper or hardware wallet, for short term or sell immediately you can transfer your coins to your trusted exchange and convert it to cash directly or to Bitcoin and then to cash fiat deposit to your bank.

blockfi.com 5.1% APY “BTC and ETH Tier Rate Change Adds More Earning Opportunities”

Very nice interest on Bitcoin BTC balance if you deposit into blockfi.com investment program. This is not a scam, it’s not a high yield investment program. However there are risk which is if gemini got hacked or the wallet hold your Bitcoin got hacked then blockfi.com said they will not be hold accountable to reimburse you, it said so in the TOS agreement when you signed up for this account, pretty much just like the MtGOx account so be careful.

Bank cannot compete with the 5% return on your Bitcoin, and definitely cannot compete with the 8.6% return on your GUSD (gemini usd) stable coin. This is probably a good opportunities to arbitrage actually, take out a loan with 3-4% and get GUSD for a 8% to profit 4%, but there are risk involve so be careful.

kraken.com latest update “Algorand (ALGO) Trading is Coming to Kraken on January 22”

On Tuesday, January 21, 2020, 01:20:24 PM EST, Kraken <[email protected]> wrote:

Kraken
Hi ,

We are pleased to announce that Algorand (ALGO) will be listed on Kraken starting January 22.

What is Algorand (ALGO)?

Algorand is a new proof-of-stake blockchain with a native cryptocurrency (ALGO) that offers its users the ability to launch tokens and decentralized applications.

Created by Silvio Micali, a professor at MIT and Turing Award winner, Algorand differentiates itself with a design that lowers costs for users seeking to participate in its operation.

By owning 1 ALGO, users are able to participate in functions essential to Algorand’s operation, including validating transactions and adding new blocks to its blockchain.

Algorand provides users with at least 1 ALGO (in a wallet they control), a share of the cryptocurrency it creates programmatically each time a block is added to its blockchain. Note: For the time being, you will not receive these rewards for the ALGO you keep directly on Kraken.

Algorand’s technology randomly designates block producers, as opposed to having users compete for the opportunity to post transactions. This design is intended to minimize the likelihood its blockchain will split or fork.

Notable investors (including Union Square Ventures) have already purchased ALGO tokens in advanced sales designed to spur project development.

The Algorand blockchain officially went live in June 2019.

Project website: https://www.algorand.com/

What time will funding and trading start?

Funding: Kraken will enable deposits and withdrawals for ALGO at approximately 14:30 UTC on January 22

Trading: The first trades will start shortly after funding is enabled as sell orders cannot be placed until deposits clear (see the required confirmation times for deposits here)

Updates will be posted on the status page near launch time

To learn more about the listing, check out our blog post.

Thank you for choosing Kraken, the trusted and secure digital asset exchange.

gemini “Gemini – Tips for securing your Authy account”

On Sunday, January 19, 2020, 09:05:15 AM EST, Gemini Trust <[email protected]> wrote:

Gemini is continually focused on enhancing its security and providing best practices to our customers for securing their own accounts.

A recent internal security audit of your account determined that you have not disabled Authy “Multi-Device”. Multi-Device allows for multiple devices to approve an Authy push notification and is a potentially insecure setting within Authy.

We strongly encourage you to disable this feature in Authy, as it greatly reduces the risk of account takeover by, increasing the effectiveness of Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP).

For more information on what this feature is, and how to disable it, please read below.

What is Authy “Multi-Device”?
Authy recommends that you install your Authy App on multiple devices. This ensures that you’ll maintain access to Authy, even if you lose one device. To make this process easier, Authy provides a feature called “Multi-Device” that allows you to add a new device to your Authy account using SMS. When this feature is enabled, it effectively reduces Authy TOTP authentication to SMS authentication. This setting is the default setting.

How can I disable the Authy “Multi-Device” feature?
Once you’ve added Authy to a backup device, disable the “Multi-Device” feature. Authy also recommends that you disable the “Multi-Device” feature, “to prevent the risk of any unauthorized devices being added.”

To do this, open the Authy App on your phone. Browse to settings and set “Allow Multi-Device” to Disabled. For a more detailed description, see the following Authy documentation.

At Gemini, trust is our product and your security is our priority. When correctly configured, Authy provides strong TOTP authentication, that is substantially more secure than SMS authentication.

If you’d like to learn more about other ways to better secure your account, read our recent blog post, 5 Quick Wins for Securing Your Online Accounts.

Onward and Upward,
