Hey James, also I never post comments, I wanted you to know that you have changed my life with regards financial literacy and mindset change!! I discovered crypto and you in Nov ‘21 and I watch you EVERYDAY with out fail and you drive me forward with my dreams of financial freedom… which I didn’t dare dream before and was only focused on being a good hamster in the race race.. you have opened my eyes!!!! Thanks again for impacting my life in such a visceral and positive matter, you are true gentleman and legend!!
Yes!!! PLEASE do a deep dive into wallets and security. Basics. We all need to learn and/or be reminded on an ongoing basis. Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for the video James…I’m very saddened today as this is the first I heard of the hack. Checked my phantom wallet and it’s ALL gone…I’m starting to lose confidence in this space big time. I’m the classic guy that got into crypto just before the ATH ‘21, got smothered out of Luna, duped by Celcius and now, with all that fear I took my SOL off exchanges and put it all on Phantom because I can’t put it on my Trezor and now I’ve lost all of that too! I know there’s nothing anyone can do but just feeling really down and discouraged and needed to vent. You’ve been awesome in all that you do so thanks for that but I really need to start thinking about exiting the crypto space…I’ve just lost sooo much $$.
Keep up the great work good sir, the community needs you…I’m just weighing out if it’s worth me being a part of it.
Yes please do more wallets and usages.
While I agree with James on most topics, I strongly disagree with his opinion of Solana. Three different wallets were involved in this hack. So that leaves me with a strong suspicion that the problem is on Solanas end. But besides that, Solana is a centralized crypto. Don't believe me? Look into how much money it takes to be a validator. This is why there are so few. It boils down to the scalability trilemma. Sure Solana has fast tps but it comes at cost. I wouldn't buy one penny of it.
Hey James, can you do a step by step for what Celsius users should be doing as of now? Can't get any clear info on whether or not I should act yet
Thanks for covering this James 👍
It doesn't matter if you use a hardware wallet and somebody gets your seed phrase.
Hey James, please do a video on good practices for seed phrases. How to back up, where to store etc. Thank for all your amazing content! God Bless
Solanaaaaaaaaa
I’d like the Phantom wallet video! Would help just to make sure I’m being as secure as possible. I’m starting a new wallet now just because of the scare from yesterday
Hey, brother, just revently found your channel (I'm very picky) and have enjoyed the content on the few that I have watched so far and wanted to say thank you for what apperas to be a straightforward, honest and genuine approach to presenting…..so thanks! It's refreshing to find someone like you in this crazy space!
Yes,yes,yes please talk about wallets please!
Hey James,thats why Cardano takes it time!!!!Solana that you support has been hacked many times!!Who is laughing now Irish boy?(Red flag my ass)when Charles said many times that ada is for the long term!!
Please do a video on how to use wallets and move f money back and forth
Thanks James
Yet again u r our rock- great info and common sense
Solana Tps, theft per second, let's speed-up.
I love how authentic this channel is. The information is always on point not like the majority of crypto channels out there who are just spreading FUD for click bait.
Yes Don’t Get Done For Your Solana lol :).

Look how many times etc had troubles, it's doing just fine!
Would love an episode on managing wallets for us newbies. Thank you James for all you do! 🙏
I was hoping to buy more. Why wasn’t there more of a dip?
more on wallets James! been doing it for a while, but trust only you!! its good to get latest info and how other people mange their portfolios. . .
OMG what is going on there?!? It’s about a mobile wallet, but the phrase was transferred to the servers! Why do the servers need it in the first place? Also why was it logged?
