Don't remind me again today

#数字货币市场回调 $BTC $ETH $BNB



Recently I fell into a trap and must share it with everyone. I had stored some coins in a small exchange before, and last week I suddenly found my account locked. After contacting customer service, I learned that they have now launched strict risk control measures for users in specific regions.

What’s even more outrageous is that the assets in the account were directly labeled as "illegal funds," and the appeals process is so complicated that it’s suffocating. The customer service response was that it was "processed according to platform rules," but these rules were never disclosed in advance.

A reminder to everyone: If you still have assets on some non-mainstream platforms, it's better to transfer them to major platforms or cold wallets as soon as possible. Don't wait until there are problems with your account and then regret it; by then, the cost of safeguarding your rights will be so high that you'll doubt your life. Some lessons are really not worth experiencing personally.

tbh this is exactly why i've been screaming about custodial risk for years... cefi platforms doing surprise rule changes is peak centralization theater. the "we'll freeze your funds and call it compliance" playbook gets old fast honestly

That's why I never touch small exchanges, they're too risky. --- I had a feeling that small platforms would blow up. --- What the hell, labeled as illegal funds? This operation is a bit harsh. --- Cold Wallets are always the way to go; managing it yourself means freedom. --- It seems that someone will have to pay tuition fees again, what a pity. --- Risk control mechanisms not mentioned in advance? That's just playing dirty. --- Coins should still be kept on top exchanges, it feels more secure. --- The appeal process is complicated... This is the trap of small platforms. --- Learned my lesson, quickly move the coins out. --- Seriously, small exchanges are just time bombs.

The rules of small exchanges are just like this, written in places that can't be seen in dark mode. I have been tricked before, and now my coins are sitting in the Cold Wallet collecting dust. --- Haha, this is the play people for suckers mechanism of the crypto world, with the platform's rhetoric set in stone. Risk control? It's really just convenient for freezing your assets. --- Honestly, non-mainstream platforms are just a pit. I only use top exchanges now, I'd rather earn less in fees than get trapped. --- This is called a variant of a Ponzi scheme, fren. Freezing accounts = disguised Rug Pull. I should have seen this scheme clearly earlier. --- I deeply relate to how complicated the appeal process is; anyway, customer service is always the scapegoat. Remember next time, only trust self-custody. --- The risk control of small platforms just wants to trap your coins, waiting for you to give up. I will never touch them again. --- To put it bluntly, the exchange is testing the critical point of playing people for suckers, seeing how long they can freeze before someone makes a fuss. --- It’s too dangerous to keep coins in small exchanges; this lesson is costly. --- Hearing this kind of thing too often, every word the platform says can be understood in reverse, just for reference, everyone.

Damn, this is the rhythm of stepping into a pit, small platforms really can't be trusted. You really have to go to big platforms, otherwise your assets can disappear overnight. That's why I'm resolutely avoiding small exchanges; their risk control mechanisms can be changed at will, who cares about you? The appeal process being complicated is a routine operation, you have to find ways to protect yourself. Cold Wallets are really appealing; at least the control is in your own hands.
