"The Petro is for everyone everywhere, it offers all the safety and transparency for your transactions"

Don't be fooled. (Thread)

*For everyone everywhere*

It’s only available in licensed local exchanges exclusively selected by Venezuelan government. So far, Maduro mentioned six unnamed exchanges where PTR will be listed, however no exchange has made such an announcement. Also, it's sanctioned in the US.
*Safety*

Mining of Petro (PTR) is centralised by the corrupt Venezuelan state. There is absolutely no safety. Their “PoS and PoW algorithm” nonsense is useless and a ruse.
*Transparency*

It used to be “backed” by petroleum. Now it’s “backed” by 50% oil, 20% gold, 20% iron and 10% diamond. However, (1) it’s not actually redeemable, so it's not actually backed by anything; and (2) we’re supposed to trust the Venezuelan government's to audit it.
The press conference today was mostly vague nonsensical declarations without concrete details on the launch.

Petro is a sham, just like the Bs.S is a sham. Don't be fooled by the Venezuelan state; use a real cryptocurrency for commerce.

Secure your LocalCryptos account with these few easy steps (thread 👇)
1. Enable 2FA
Google Authenticator stores your 2FA backup key locally on your device, making it much harder for hackers to compromise your security.
2. Download Wallet Backup
The wallet backup is a file that allows you to access the private keys to your wallet independently and at any time you want.

Since the wallet backup file contains the key to your cryptocurrency funds, it should be treated with extreme care.

Gas prices are above 500 Gwei again.

LocalCryptos isn't celebrating

Here's why:

High network fees hurt the underserved the most. They're a further blow to communities that are already excluded financially from the rest of the world.

Let's talk about Venezuela.

As far as we know, more Venezuelans use LocalCryptos than any other #Ethereum DApp. LocalCryptos is the most popular $ETH decentralized application among Venezuelans.

However the way Venezuelans use LocalCryptos is different to the rest of the world.
Venezuelans are in a dire situation. The bolívar has already lost 85% of its value since January, and it is constantly losing more of it every day.

We're not making this up. The bolívar loses value EVERY SINGLE DAY… (cont)
