Brands were getting a bit confusing, so we consolidated them! FTX.com/intl: the international FTX exchange FTX.us: the US FTX exchange: FTX -- ftx.com, chooses between the two @blockfolio --> FTX

I quite liked having a simple product like Blockfolio that I could tell my first-time crypto friends to use — clean, no margin, vetted tokens/coins. Telling them to use FTX feels harder cos now I’m worried they’re accidentally exposed to a complex financial product w 25x leverage

IMO Coinbase do this quite well — basic Coinbase is super simple for noobs and complexity is hidden into Coinbase Pro which you have to seek out. But CBpro product itself isn’t very good IMO.

Atm, this switch over seems more confusing to me. In general, if you recommend a product to someone and they can end up in 1 of 3 different products that have different risk parameters that seems more complicated than before. “I’m on FTX” “Which one?” etc

IMO if consolidating brands then FTX and FTX Pro need to always mean the same thing. I would never recommend FTX Pro (intl exchange) to first time crypto newbies because it’s complex with high risk opportunities that they shouldn’t be using. I would recommend Blockfolio tho.

anyways shitposts aside I think this is a good move long term and will actually make things easier I often recommended blockfolio to noobs but the main reason was that I trust FTX and it will be easier to understand going forward good morning
