CAUTION!! Many scammers are using the comment section to promote their scams and sometimes even use the name “99Bitcoins” in their profile. Never send money to someone you don’t know and don’t accept offers to trade or exchange cryptocurrency from strangers.
Stay safe 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you
Thanks, almost got something valuable
Nate, I really enjoy each and every video. I learned a lot of info!
What are you learning
Sure you did
Do we use the same methods with XRP coins and other coins? Or is this for bitcoins only?
Thanks for your videos. Could not find any link to recommended VPN you mentioned in the video.
These are the best VPNs we recommend: 99bitcoins.com/best-vpn-services/
Appreciate
Very clear explanation. Definitely among the best I have found as a N00b to crypto!
so it's preferable to open a BTC wallet instead of a coinbase wallet
I Love it a bit coins is a very interesting going to the happy future life don,t miss it
I will buy bitcoin after my ledger nano s is delivered. Stay safe and good luck to you sir. :)
Is it safe to keep seed phrase on password mangers app
Do you recommend installing Brave browser on Mac OS?
Sure, it should work just fine and you could potentially earn a little coin by enabling ads.
@@99Bitcoins Thank you, Nate. :) I've heard about BAT rewards. Sounds fun.... I may download Brave.
but to keep tether on a cold wallet
Hey using vauld app is vulnerable?. Also they give fixed deposit option on our cryptos coins . It mean that coin is in not in my account? Pls reply
My main concern can i get identity theft... On bit coin
Now if the have the phrase or key, they also need to know what kind of wallet you have? Or what mobile app your using right?
No they don't need to know that. They can generate your wallet with that seed phrase
So cooL
Nice, really cool
Bitcoin is the future investment in now will be wisest decision to do especially with the current rate
Am also into bitcoin but am afraid I've lost so much trying to work on my own, seriously I need a nice broker, I'm scared of more losses
You've not mentioned paper wallets.
it's not a question which I worry about now I just hope btc will be safe itself
An 8 character password could be cracked in a few days.
In regards to links in e-mails I have better advice.
Just don't click 'em.
If the e-mail seems to come from a website you know, say, one where you have made an account, then just have that website bookmarked, and use the bookmark. Or type in the website's name in your browser, it'll likely auto-complete the correct address.
If the link has some important 'extra stuff' after the website name and the slash, for example the e-mail mentions a unique offer tailored just for you, which the link should lead you to, then just copy that part of the address, and paste it at the end of the website's address you got from your bookmark.
This approach is IMHO both more convenient, and safer, than trying to spot 'suspicious typos' in the website's address.
Is blockchain a 3rd party wallet
Yes, blockchain.com operates a web wallet. What this means is, a wallet you open with them is contained within their website, meaning the site controls your private keys. This is risky, as it gives the site operators or anyone who hacks it control over your coins. For this reason, it's usually recommended that you only store coins within a personal wallet under your full control. A hardware wallet is best for this purpose, as it protects against the most common online / malware forms of attack.
Why there is so much fuss on valuation of Bitcoins or any other currencies, isn't currency meant for value exchange?
imagine being updated for a year that hasn't happened yet... lol
Nate, Thank you for the great videos. I was not clear on your point with six confirmations. Can you please explain this in more detail? Or maybe you already have the video on that? If yes, please send the link here
Comment section praising whatever coin is literally the most ironical thing I've ever seen for such a video
Use password generator
If you don't have money for a hardware wallet, You can keep your bitcoins on a paper wallet!
Investing in bitcoin is the best investment anyone can do this, because it has made a lot of people millionaire. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life
What if you have already been scammed. Is there no way at all to get the money back?
Thank you Nate. I recently bought the BC Vault but I’m having second thoughts now. The company that makes it is in Serbia. The software isn’t open source and the vault uses only passwords. Do you know anything about this hard wallet? Thanks
i got scammed 15 times before landing on this video
thanks
How do you got scam
Nice work! I'm curious about your current view on HitBTC. Can you update the review on your website?
the scammers also contact you after your coins were stolen (under a different company) and claim that they can recover it for an upfront fee....
Smfh
Can you give me a good company adress sir.because I am m new
A thumb drive with a fingerprint / voice print / iris scanner. If you believe you can conceive. A trillion-dollar idea.
FEB 2021: 7500 BTC = USD 280,000,000
I have a single question,say that I buy a random coin how do I store it on a paper wallet?,I do not care about digital etc just paper, Paper wallet! let's say I have 1 bitcoin and I want to buy 10 random coins for example, how do I get that 10 coins and put it on a paper wallet as a paper wallet in which I have a bitcoin
I want to buy some coins and I want to put them on a paper wallet. PS: I use google translate.
Use a paper wallet random key generater, it can be found by googleing crypto paper wallet generater.
What is a demo account?
Somebody is asking me to sign up for a demo account to begin that when I have funds I will start the real trading.What are the loopholes about this type of trade?
Demonstration means not real.
very informative. thank you. Is there any updating on this topic on your videos or is it still enough to know what this video contains.
And every time you make a transaction with bitcoin you pay a miners fee. I don't think I'm cool with that
hello nice video i wish i saw this video before i lost $321 even i did 2FA even,and never share private key,all stolen without any confirmation on my phone after that i lose trust on blockchain
Dude that british guy who losrt 7500 bitcoins just lost around $500 million (currently)
I was skeptical when I first learn about bitcoin, and I watch and listen carefully these few years. I hear you, "Don't invest more than you can afford to lose." :)
Yes that is the best advice ever
I don’t understand.. first you say that bitcoin transactions are irreversible but than you also say to wait 6 confirmations to be sure that the transaction is irreversible, like wtf? Can someone explain.
Yea....I'm with you on this one. If it's irreversible, why should I wait for 6 confirmations to "ensure" that it's irreversible?
I didn't watch the video yet so this might get answered..... Mobile wallets make me very nervous. Can I just buy say $500 in bitcoins and just print it out on a piece of paper and put it in a safe. And if the price of Bitcoin skyrockets to $100,000 I can re insert it into a digital wallet?
You can insert you bit coin in your wallet or now a days u know crypto is on its high bruh and its also safe you have to try Walahala wallet walahala.com it has privacy or phrasing option also and they have also their android application or they also provide demo account walahala.com/downloadDemoWallet
7500 bitcoins are now worth $315M 😂😂
OMG I CAN’T THANK YOU LESS MISTCYBER, YØU DID IT
Omg. I'm so so glad I watched this. I am bombarded with these mails. And I don't even know how they have my address in the first place. And I been wanting to reply. because I want to invest. But not knowing who to trust. Thank you so much . I'll keep watching
How could a person invest in a crypto IRA that does not allow you to hold your private key in your own cold wallet? This breaches the number 1 rule for big money and I would assume that big money is the key to investing in a crypto IRA. Could you please, please make a vid on this or direct me to one that covers how to safely do this. I already know of one crypto IRA that allowed their client’s funds to be stolen and hold their private key could have limited their loss.
Bitcoin been stolen and bank account been stolen, are totally different issues. They are not same. You can retreat your bank money with law, but Bitcoin once you lost it will be final. No way to PROVE you own it. I like the concept but It can't let me sleep well.
I was confused and not knowledgeable about this until mistcyber was recommended to me and I wasn’t disappointed I got the service I requested for
The rich stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then the poor stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich
People are scared of investing because of the high rate of scam in the business
