Crypto 101: ShapeShift (Currency Exchange Service) Overview for New Crypto Folks, and Video (7 mins) Just Released by Them - on Customer Support Concerns

in #crypto-news7 years ago (edited)


What is ShapeShift?


  • Did you know that ShapeShift Technology is built into Crypto wallet tech already?

  • You can find it in wallets like the JAXX wallet and the Exodus wallet! Both wallets and others like them, allow you to hold and exchange MULTIPLE CRYPTO CURRENCIES inside it. Very practical and functional.

  • ShapeShift is a web and API platform formed in August of 2014 to provide instant Bitcoin and altcoin conversion with the maximum level of consumer protection and efficiency.

  • Users do not have to create accounts, deposit funds, or provide private personal information. This keeps the users safe from identity or financial theft – a critical improvement in exchange technology.

  • The company has a strict “No Fiat” policy, meaning it does not use banks or political currencies anywhere in its operations.

  • Investors in the platform: Also a godfather of crypto currency - Roger Ver, and the Digital Currency Group (Barry Silbert)

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.
This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.
I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.
Carry On.

Thank you for this post. I’m going to take a look at this company and let you know what I did.
Resteemed and Upvoted!

It works well.

Make sure you exchange enough to make it worth your while, like I said, they are not cheap but they are good.

Hey, I looked at ShapeShift app on my iPhone and it looks very simple, I really like about it that you don’t need an account to use it. However I’m sticking to Coinbase just because I don’t plan any transaction in the near future, as for now I’m buying dips and hold long term. Also on Shape Shift mobile app there are only three coins you can convert, I know that you can do more on desktop but it’s not real possibility for me since I can’t be in from of my computer most of the time. Overall it’s simple and great app ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 1/2.

wow, awesome post with super video,,, Yeah, it's really great analysis and also thanks to you to introduce me to 'SHAPE SHIFT'.
