    The “Hindu Temple” in Egypt is actually called “Kasr Albaron” or in English “The Baron’s Palace” and is a relic of “New Cairo” or “Masral’ja’dee’dah” at the time it was built. Used to be the residence of its owner. Now reckoned as a national treasure and is in the process of being converted into a museum. There’s a Wikipedia page on it. CNBC should have made a better job researching this tidbit before claiming it to be a Hindu Temple. This, and other similar little misinformation here and there, cast doubt on the veracity of the entire documentary.

    Can someone help explain to me why large currency exchanges and wallets for them could be registered without regulations in place that mandate each wallet to be registered with validated IDs? Like, we had to wait for them to attempt to cash out the bitcoins via a Walmart Giftcard, and somehow Walmart has stronger KYC than a currency exchange?
    Second question, if a bitcoin is transferred from Wallet A to Wallet Z, even if in between them they were transferred into wallets B through Y before they reached Z, why couldn't we just freeze all wallets from B to Z and claw back or reverse all transactions made until they return to A?
    Like, how does this work, does anybody know?

    • @picketf
      @picketf 11 месяцев назад

      KYC wasn't a thing back then. It was gradually pushed on to exchanges, and today there are still exchanges that don't require any form of ID whatsoever, they usually avoid doing business with Americans to avoid getting in trouble but they are still there and US citizen with a foreign mail forwarding service and a VPN could still use them too.
      Transactions on the bitcoin Network are irreversible that's what makes it interesting to own a crypto currency like bitcoin, not even the government can do anything unless they find the private key to the wallet that gives them autorisation to move the funds.
