hey @aggroed, we're looking forward for how to logistically get money into crypto. That's been our big dilemma how to get out of fiat and into crypto.

We're planning on living in many locations. I hold 2 passports my children hold 3. It's a nightmare to move money from one nation's currency to another, not even considering "money-changer fees". It's out"rape"ous how much it cost just to put our money in another country. Crypto is awesome in that sense.

But one issue we have is how to protect our own machines that have our crypto wallets protected from hackers. Most of them are probably MIC hackers from all the world governments. My husband just put a litecoin wallet on one of our linux machines and suddenly he saw someone making access folders on the desktop to that wallet. He quickly shutdown and restarted offline, changed VPN, deleted those folders. Now we're kind of freaked out that before we even transfer a crypto satoshi/litoshi that someone's already eavesdropping on our wallet.

If you can, give us also some insight on security. Of course, you're not our financial advisor :D We'll take responsibility for our decisions.

Anyway, it's all fake money.

Pretty sure it's worse with fiat...

IDK, 2FA. I'm not a security guy by any means. Seems like a good post, but I'm not the one to write it.

haha thanks. btw, great job on tying it all together from Federal Reserve to fiat and to where we are today.

We really enjoyed the Witness forum you promoted and hosted. It was great
