what wallet u use? for storing xrp.

Xumm for software wallet.

If using hardware wallet use xrptoolkit.com.

Both can add trustlines to get various airdrops of tokens in XRP ledger. For long term XRP holders it'll be a waste not taking advantage of this.

guess only your MYR fiat is guaranteed, not your cryptos.

I dont think Luno will go bankrupt.They got branches in UK and South Afrika.
I got RM when I sold my Btc within 2 days.I will buy again when price drop below 60k.
I still believe Btc will go up the next price halfing.

I can't send my XRP from Luno to Nexo. Anyone can advise how to bypass this? It gave me this error. The address and tag I input is all correct. Wth? Previously I send to Nexo from Luno no issue, suddenly got this restriction?

not familiar with this error but looks like easiest way would be to use an intermediary wallet. i.e. send to other approved exchange/hot wallet/cold wallet/etc then only send to nexo.

Luno is an exchange, not recommended to keep your assets in an exchange unless you’re a day trader.

Luno is not a cold wallet nor hot wallet unlike previously explained. Google on self custody wallet, cold wallet and hot wallet to get the right information.

is it cheaper to buy directly from luno? example

1. myr to xrp to binance to ada
2. myr to ada (directly in luno)
*
when you are buying from different exchanges, you are buying from different orderbooks. it depends on the liquidity (how much buy and sell order) of each exchange.

anyway, when comparing, don't forget to include the trading fee everytime you buy/sell and also withdrawing fee (transaction fee).

Hi guys,

I have been using Luno to DCA and buy BTC.

However I just realized that this means I'm buying BTC/MYR instead of BTC/USD. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

BTC/MYR has surpassed the All time high but BTC/Myr has not. This means that I'm losing gains?

This has made me consider to switch platform.

Question:

- How do I switch platform and transfer the money? If I sell everything on luno and buy the equivalent amount on another platform, will I be in the same position as currently?

Also if you can help to recommend me some good platform to buy crypto in malaysia I would really appreciate it!

Thanks alot in advance!

1. when you have bought BTC, it doesn't matter anymore which currency you've used to buy it in the first place.

1 BTC bought from BTC/MYR is equivalent to 1 BTC bought from BTC/USD, BTC/EUR, BTC/JPY, etc.

2. every exchanges has different order books. i.e. different buy & sell orders in every exchange.

BTC/MYR in Luno may not have reached ATH because nobody set a buy order higher than ATH in Luno. but in Binance it may have reached ATH because there's more buy order over there.

3. yes you can switch platforms, especially because of item 2 explained above. but think back how you're going to convert back to your preferred fiat currency later on. it may or may not be worth it.

Luno price in RM something wrong. The price not same with USD price.

Because orderbook (supply/buy order) of every exchange is different. It depends on the liquidity that its users provide.

I believe all crypto exchanges do not record their buy/sell/trade transactions on the blockchain.

Only send and receive crypto transactions are recorded.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

You are correct. This is normal for most if not all exchanges.

QUOTE(socratesman @ Jan 10 2025, 09:59 PM)
As a beginner, I feel worried upon learning this. What could be the negative consequences of not having it recorded on blockchain, if any?
*
The answer is obvious. Something else to ponder, what happens if the exchange suddenly disappears/bankrupt/MIA/etc.?
