I'm computer engineer and i'm security expert since 2006 like "Information security". So my experience says "all platforms can be hack by someone" There is no safe place in the internet, so how can i avoid ?
i have been since 3 years in crypto-world. First we kicked by MTGOX
http://www.wired.com/2014/03/bitcoin-exchange/
and many people lost their money, future and dreams. They didn't recover their money back. It was absolutely bad days for Crypto world. Then what we do ? Someone exit from crypto-world and someone tried to recover their money back with deposits again another exchanges. I'm really worried about exchanges why ? We can't avoid by hackers, local laws, those exchanges companies are centralized If they hacked by someone that means we lost our money!!. And they vanishes.. Why i got kicked if exchange can't defend their self! So who read this post i believe many of them hold their btcs in their wallet. That means we don't trust because of "hacks" or scams!
So we need a another thing which is " decentralized exchanges" why decentralized? Because i care my money and i want to hold in my pocket. If i need to trade my coins, i ll trade however i want.. I think #Waves ll fill this thing if they success in future.
If anyone still who want to continue in crypto world and have to trade please listen carefully and check it
www.wavesplatform.com They create a decentralized exchange, and i believe them. If they will success all traders and crypto world users can use it safely then the other centralized exchanges!
I will use wavesplatform in the future and i'm glad to see they will success. You know why ? If my wallet hacked i'll not cry like now! Because i made mistake and someone grab my money!!! My mistakes and my result! But i'm worry about who lost their money in bitfinex! because they didn't do any mistake! and still no any laws to cover them!
