Well, yes I am Indian, second time in a list like this you prepared earlier too. I am in Hive since inception(not movie for real) transitioned from Steem. And this has kept me permanently in this crypto space.
It's good to think as being part of community. I am only posting and don't find time for other things in Hive, but I got the bond right with the platform and I hope its long term and mutually benificially.
Personally, I benefited coz I got recognized for being things - like a good cat story teller, crypto writen, travel writer and also whined here on there on life.
It helped me focus on crypto, and Web3 and I am on Web3 vehicle.
I take it I will be around for ever here, if things go well, anyway.
I hope I too make valuable contributions to the growth of the platform.
I am glad so many Indians from so many regions from India are here on Hive.
Here crypto will thrive always inspite the regulations, we are tough people as long as crypto wont be banned. Ok
Good to hear you are in it for the long term. I really hope that Hive can grow in India and elsewhere. Have fun.
Actually, India's biggest exchange wazirx is hacked yesterday. I feel bad for Indians whose funds are stuff there. I don't step on CEXs so I am not personally affected but these sort of instances really put crypto people off.
Its hard for them.
I just read that there funds can't be transfered to international exchanges, it will stay in wazirx wallet.
So, that multi sign wallet got hacked somehow, provably North Koreon hackers are involved.
And user funds in that exchange is locked and is falling down, even if their value is high and gone up in actually in coingecko and all...
Na... I don't think Indias being in India in straight forward manner and engage in crypto... I am a true crypto enthusiast so, it's different, but for others na... its hard.
Regulations have to relax and people should be free to custody their funds outside, put into other exchanges, else its like caging us, that's what happened.
Glad I don't use CEXs...not a investor anyway... I only write and post articles and study crypto.
Wazix hack -
I don't keep anything in exchanges. They are big targets. Hive makes it ready to run your own wallet and earn from it.
