Hey CryptoDad, I see you have the moonbeam network. Do you have a video on setting up the moonbeam network and connecting to your ledger? Also, where are you buying GLMR if so? Thanks!

[jackyxia]

Hey crypto dad can you make a video how to revoke permission for smart contract to access funds

[mamg]

Thanks, Mr Dad why ledger is not open source is it safe to use?

[pbrusky]

This why I will be switching to Internet Money Wallet!!! Bata just came out so you can test it. It is a community driven wallet

You did a video on how to transfer BTC and ETH from Ledger to CoinTracker about a year ago, I'm having trouble transferring my ADA from Ledger to a Cointracker wallet? Was wondering if you could do a video on that? Please and thank you. Your videos are very helpful. GB

Note: all vpns will rat you out to the government if asked! Cause they keep the logs even if they say they dont. They are highly centralized. A true vpn is a crypto vpn like the orchid network. Its decentralized and you will be trully anonymous. It works by usage. So i only use it when i trully have to.

There is a new update for Ledger Nano x 2.5 are u going to review ?

Nord VPN covers 6 devices but can the same subscription cover a CPU with Windows 10 and a CPU with Windows 11?

@TheCryptoDad Hi i have a question that troubles me, some assets are allowed on Ledger, but we cannot even see the Accounts, for example VeChain (use with Sync) HBAR (use with HashPack). So if i restored my Ledger there is no way to see this information (actually on Ledger currently the only hint its the apps) any toughts or tips about this? And how to organize multiple soft wallets, thanks

Well known how I feel about anything Eth🤮. Mahalos anyway from the lit up volcano of the Pacific. 🌋

Metamask is really annoying and it just gets more annoying, with their constantly updated privacy policies. Just take your recovery phrase and put it in a different wallet, I'm done with it. People, it's not worth it for some stupid airdrop, which looks like it's never going to come.

With the next bullrun being so far away. No need to do all this trading that you get taxed on. Yes, i know 100x will make you rich. But time is on our side. I don't plan on using metamask.

And doesn't JP Morgan (or Goldman Sachs ?) own 10% of Consensus ? (All the while Jamie Dimon was warning AGAINST investing in BTC/crypto !! )

[DarthRaver-ogqq]

Eth is trash. Only reason it got so popular was because of NFT's and swap chains. So many better networks today that don't screw you over with network fees, why would you still use ethereum??
