While offering high gains, crypto markets carry substantial downside risks. To protect yourself from scams and market volatility, we share key self-defense rules for beginners.

Key Self-Defense Rules

1. Invest Only Spare Capital

Crypto is a high-risk asset class that could theoretically drop to zero. Never invest money required for rent, food, or basic living expenses.

The 12-word recovery seed phrase for wallets like MetaMask is the master key to your funds. Anyone who asks for it (including fake 支援 staff) is trying to rob you. Keep it written safely offline.

益處 and Risks of Using Overseas Exchanges (Binance, Bybit etc.)

Global cryptocurrency exchanges (like Binance or Bybit) offer massive token selections and leverage. While attractive, they are unregistered with 日本’s Financial Services Agency (FSA), raising distinct risks. We analyze the advantages and dangers.

Key Advantages of Overseas Exchanges

Vast Token Directories: While 日本 exchanges list around 30 coins, global portals host hundreds of emerging micro-cap altcoins.
Advanced Yield Services: Offers high-yield savings, launchpads, and liquidity mining.
No Margin Call Protection (No Debt Risk): Futures platforms feature a “zero-cut system” that voids account balances if liquidations occur, avoiding debt.

Major Associated Risks

Unregistered with the FSA: Trading platforms operating without licenses risk facing access blocks or geofencing for Japanese IPs.
Lacks Legal Asset Protection: If an overseas platform collapses, JPY assets are unprotected by Japanese financial safety nets.
Complex Tax Reporting: Gathering transaction statements and converting cross-trades complicates year-end tax calculations.
