Cryptocurrency technology, the most well-known name of Bitcoin, offers many conveniences and poses many risks. Users can be defrauded in virtual currency purchases, as well as wallets and stock exchange accounts can be hacked. Although you can see which wallet this money went to from the moment money is out of your wallet, it is almost impossible to find information about the owner of the wallet.
Wallet
Wallets are strongly encrypted virtual addresses produced with software and encryption provided by many companies and programs. Although these virtual wallets are strongly encrypted, they can be stolen if these passwords are compromised directly or indirectly. You may feel in a desperate situation, as crypto laws are volatile and unsettled, depending on the country of possession of the wallet, the origin of your wallet provider, and your country of residence. Prae Legal has opportunities to take you out of this bad situation with its wide network and experience in cryptocurrency law!
Exchance Safety
In some cases, you will have to transfer cryptocurrencies to your wallets or accounts in the exchanges you trade. But how safe are these exchanges?
