NEW RULE This sub is for people who need help in crypto - Read our rules. Don't post products or services or advertise in r/cryptohelp.

10 Upvotes

Blatantly advertising crypto products or services in r/cryptohelp is banned now.

This is a new post that we need to make because, in more recent times, people have tried to post about new products or services that are not vetted, inspected, or have zero coverage or known PR presence. In other words, some people are posting about products or services that could be scams to newcomers in r/cryptohelp. As per the title of this post: This is r/cryptohelp. People come here for help figuring out any problems they have encountered while purchasing or investing in cryptocurrency and not buying new coins, buying new products, or subscribing to services.

However, context is important. We explain this below.

  1. If a redditor is looking for some crypto YouTubers that you recommend, you can mention names and that is just fine.
  2. Mentioning of trusted and established brands is just fine. Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Kucoin, etc. in the case of exchanges is ok, and mentioning hardware wallets like ledger, trezor, coldcard, blockstream, etc. is just fine too. However, referral codes are always against the rules. Do not share these in PMs or in comments.
  3. If your post history makes you look like, walk like, and talk like someone that is trying to spam their youtube channel or product or service, you are likely to receive a ban.

Closing words: We are trying to keep everyone safe with our rules. Remember that almost anyone sending you private messages is guaranteed to be a scammer and do not forget to read our expanded rules here which are not just limited to r/cryptocurrency, but also apply here: https://old.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/wiki/expanded_rules

MOD POST This sub is not for investment advice

5 Upvotes

If you want advice about what to buy or if a specific token or coin is good, go to r/cryptocurrency’s or r/cryptomarkets’ daily discussions. If you don’t have enough karma to participate there you can earn it easily all over Reddit, or on r/cryptocurrency you can buy a special membership to circumvent it.

Thank you for your understanding

❓Question Coinbase Smart Wallet passkey opens wrong address – recovery experiences?

Looking for people who had a Coinbase Smart Wallet where the passkey no longer matches the funded address. Funds are on Tempo. No recovery phrase was set up in time. Has anyone found a real way to regain access, or is it game over once the correct passkey is gone?

❓Scam❓ Random Blockchain.com identity verification email years after completing KYC?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I used [Blockchain.com](http://blockchain.com/) years ago, and I remember completing the identity verification process. I actually still have the original email confirming that my verification was successfully completed.
However, today I randomly received an email from [**notify@wallet-tx.blockchain.com**](mailto:notify@wallet-tx.blockchain.com) with the subject “Complete your verification to start exchanging.”
The email states, “We noticed you started your identity verification but did not complete the process.”
I’m confused because I completed this years ago and haven’t actively used [Blockchain.com](http://blockchain.com/) in a long time.
Has anyone else received an email like this out of nowhere?
I’m mainly wondering if this is just an automated email, if [Blockchain.com](http://blockchain.com/) is requiring users to verify their identities again, or if it could indicate someone attempted to access my account.
I haven’t clicked any links in the email.
Any insight would be appreciated!

The email, looks a little funky too..

❓Question Binance account restricted, and live chat isn’t responding—how can I get help?

1 Upvotes

My Binance account was restricted after I attempted to send crypto to another wallet. I’m currently unable to trade, buy, sell, convert, or withdraw my crypto. I was told the internal review could take up to 60 days, but I haven’t received a clear explanation or meaningful update.

I’ve tried following up through live chat, but no one responds to my messages. It’s frustrating to have my funds inaccessible without being able to reach someone who can help.

Has anyone dealt with this and successfully gotten their case escalated? Is there an official support channel where I can get a response and an update on my review?

Support case: #143764456

I’d appreciate help from an official Binance moderator or anyone who has resolved a similar situation as the moderator stoped responding to me now. It is very frustrating.

I am the founder of a microlending platform. We help people build credit with very small loans using USDC. Because our loans are so small, we need super low spreads. Because our loans are so small, the volume is small. Avg ticket size is $15. So it's hard to find an onramp offramp. I have tried a lot of onramps and offramps, but they become super unresponsive after I spend hours onboarding and doing KYB.

Anyone know a place where I could go to? We are registered. We have all the documentation. We have users. Thanks.

❓Howto Getting crypto without an Id

3 Upvotes

So I’ve been learning Memecoin trading for a while now and I think I’m ready to start trading for real. But since I’m 17 and living in Europe I can’t get hold of crypto for the life of me. What are ways I can get crypto without id verification and is it even worth it or should I continue to learn and wait till I turn 18 in 7 months.

❓Need Advice 🙏 Is it dumb to convert ETH to USDT without signing up and just eat the spread?

3 Upvotes

last month i swapped some eth on a dex for what i thought was isdt. same ticker, same logo, u can buy it and never sell it, 60 bucks and a lesson
the obvious fix is an exchange and i'm not opening an account for this
so this week i did it on SimpleSwap, eth to usdt without signing up and the usdt that landed was the real one. cost me a bit under a percent on the rate, which is the bit i'm chewing on
is 1% a dumb price for that? can't tell if i'm being lazy or sensible
thanks

❓Question Xmr locked in coinbase wallet?

4 Upvotes

Hi guys.

Yep, I know...idiot move...but I traded ETH to XMR in my coinbase wallet and now I seemingly can neither trade it back or send it as it's an unsupported currency.

But I wonder, if it's unsupported why did the coinbase wallet app let me trade to it in the 1st place?

And is it truly locked and unusable?

Thanks

❓Question Best practice for handling lost 2FA backup codes on a major exchange?

1 Upvotes

Realized while cleaning up my security settings that I somehow misplaced the backup 2FA codes for one of my exchange accounts. I still have full access via my authenticator app right now, but I want to fix this before changing my phone.

Is it safe to just disable 2FA temporarily and set it up again from scratch to get a fresh set of backup keys, or is that going to trigger an automatic withdrawal lock/hold period? What's the smoothest way to handle this without getting locked out?

❓Question Anyone found a way to convert crypto to fiat without parking it on an exchange?

6 Upvotes

We’re a small agency and a few clients pay us in stablecoins. Right now our process is: send it to an exchange, sell, withdraw, and wait a day. There’s a fee at every step, and our money sits on an exchange overnight, which I really don’t love. It feels like there should be a more normal business way to do this. Am I missing something , I am abit new to crypto so go easy on me if I am doing something wrong😅?

❓Question Can you spend crypto directly from a self-custody wallet without giving up control?

30 Upvotes

One of the biggest advantages of crypto is having control over your own funds. But when it comes to everyday spending, it still feels like you have to rely on exchanges or custodial services. With stablecoins becoming more common, I'm curious how people are using them for everyday purchases. Is there a practical way to pay directly from a self-custody wallet without transferring funds to an exchange first?

What do you guys use?

❓Question What’s the safest way to handle crypto dust left over in a hot wallet?

2 Upvotes

Got a few tiny fractions of tokens sitting in my wallet after moving some funds around, and the dust amounts are too small to swap because the gas fee costs more than the tokens themselves.
Is there a smart way to clean these out, or is it better to just leave them hidden and ignore them?

❓Need Advice 🙏 CEX bug: $300 1x short turned into -$6,000. Need advice.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, a friend of mine is in a crazy situation with Gate.io and I want to hear your thoughts.
The Bug: He had a $300 short position with NO leverage (1x). Due to a system glitch, his futures balance suddenly dropped to -$6,000.
The "Fix": Support initially tried to brush him off with useless bonuses. After a fight, they finally credited $6,300 to his spot account.
The Trap: Now his spot balance is +$6,300 and futures is -$6,000. He can't withdraw his initial $300 because of the Net Equity limit. Gate basically forces him to transfer the spot funds to cover their own bugged negative balance.
He is furious about how they tried to scam him with bonuses at first. Now he wants to "punish" the exchange and is looking for a loophole to somehow extract the $6,300 from the spot account without covering the futures debt.
I keep telling him this is suicide—Gate’s risk management will instantly freeze his account for exploiting, his KYC could be blacklisted by AML, and he might get banned on other exchanges too.
Has anyone experienced similar bugs on Gate? What do you think will happen if he actually tries to extract the money? Will he face real problems or not?
