Living in a multi-digital-currency world

The Bitcoin SegWit2x fork

The Bitcoin SegWit2x fork –that was scheduled to happen on 16 November 2017— has been suspended and is unlikely to happen now. We released an article explaining our position on it.

Enable 2FA

Your Bitcoin is valuable, and protecting it with two-factor authentication is strongly recommended to protect you from hackers. It will keep your account more secure by requiring both your password and your phone to login and make transactions. Even if someone steals or guesses your password, they won’t be able to access your account without also having your phone.If you haven’t done so yet, we highly recommend that you enable it.
