To me, these subtle differences aren't just nitpicking by some design team. These details elevate the experience, and I attribute more trustworthiness to companies that put this effort into their projects. It's funny, in the past

They offered this because it’s the staking reward the Polkadot network rewards for staking your coins. Binance just offers you to stake with them and in turn gives you part of the rewards. The 15% are paid in DOT though, so your dollar retu

Yeah and I’m sure the Apple App Store review process won’t catch the steal_private_keys_and_upload_to_china() method they inserted. Not that iPhone apps can’t do this in the first place. A lot of FUD right now to create even more chaos.

FTX was *throwing* money at everything moving in the crypto space. Where the heck did all the money go? Did they just spend VC money as long as they could and ran out now? Or did all the money disappear through the Alameda pipe? I really ho

I don’t get how these things don’t catch more attention outside the tech community. Back in the day Snowden basically gave up his life to expose the same horrific crimes against humanity committed by the NSA. Now it’s the Chinese, an enemy

Absolutely not. The single tanker load is the only binding agreement.
