Beware of Changelly (Bitcoin Frozen)
I’m absolutely gutted to be writing this, but I feel it’s my duty to warn others. I’ve recently swapped (at time's value) over £340,000 worth of Bitcoin through Ledger Live app, Changelly provider, and I’m still reeling from the shock. The transaction simply vanished — no funds, no proper explanation, and support has been appallingly unresponsive. Every message I’ve sent has been met with silence or generic platitudes.
To make matters worse, when I tried to share my experience on Reddit, my post was swiftly removed — and I’m not the only one. A growing number of users have reported similar issues, only for their concerns to be quietly swept under the rug. It raises serious questions about transparency and accountability.
What’s most alarming is that Exodus and other well-known services have integrated Changelly directly into their platforms, exposing unsuspecting users to significant risk. I trusted these platforms implicitly, and now I’m paying the price.
If you’ve also been affected, please share your story over at r/Changelly\_Scam. It’s one of the few spaces left where victims can speak freely without being silenced.
Please, do your research thoroughly before using these services. And for heaven’s sake, stay safe out there.

Trump Media says it's raising $2.5 billion to buy bitcoin
The Truth Social parent company's move is another example of Trump's push to be seen as the first "crypto president."
FML 😭 I dropped $399 on a GoPro Hero 3 back in 2013 instead of buying BTC. Today that would be $353,604

About to dump my real estate "investment" to BTC
Eight years ago, I fell for the popular advice: “Real estate is the best investment,” “prices only go up,” “it’s a hedge against inflation.” So I bought an apartment. I bought it at a 20% discount below market value because I got it from a grand parent. He told me to look the cheapest in the area and discount 20% off and that would be the price. What a slam dunk, right?
Five years in, I tried to sell. My realtor told me to leave it empty because “rented homes take longer to sell.” So I left it vacant. A full year. No rent. Just sitting there. Eventually, frustrated, I rented it out again for two more years.
Fast forward to now: I just sold it. And to my luck (again) I sold it for more than what new properties in the area are going for, even though this apartment is 13 years old. It was even above what my agent said I could ever get. So I bought at the lowest price possible, and I sold at the highest price possible.
I did my numbers and still I lost money.
How?
1. Appreciation was a myth. The so-called “gain” barely beat inflation, and certainly didn’t compensate for the time, risk, or more importantly opportunity cost.
2. Vacancy and maintenance wasn't hell but hurt my returns. I lost rental income for a year, because market wasn't active when I wanted to sell. paid fees, taxes to buy, taxes to keep and taxes to sell.
Now here’s where Bitcoin comes in.
I have been buying Btc since 2017. Haven't sold any. But have invested peanuts Compared to this apparment. With btc, I don’t deal with broken pipes or flaky tenants. I don’t need a real estate agent to “convince” someone to overpay.
With Bitcoin, I own it. It’s mine. It’s liquid. It’s borderless. It doesn’t age, it doesn’t rot, and I can send it in a second to anyone in the world. And despite the volatility, I’ve never lost sleep over it the way I have over real estate.
I’m 35 now, and feel like I lost 8 years of financial race in this stupid play.
I learned this lesson the hard way, but I share it in case someone else is being told the same myths I was when younger. Real estate is not always the safe bet they make it out to be. And for me, Bitcoin makes a hell of a lot more sense.
I will now dump all the proceeds to multiply my stats, even at the all time high. And will surely sleep like a baby tonight
