RE: Crypto Academy / Season 3 / Week 7 - Homework Post for Professor @sapwood
I lost more than 100usdt attempting your homework post
How you lost 100 USDT, can you explain?
In my Task, if you have used Electrum Wallet, then the opening a channel will cost you around 92 USDT. Opening a Channel and Closing Channel are only recorded on-chain hence incur fees, which will be around 1.5 USD each, so $3. (on average)
So if you opened the channel and closed the channel after performing an eCommerce purchase, then you get your BTC back, so the tangible cost to perform a real transaction will be somewhere around 3 USDT in total.
Can you tell me how you lost 100 USDT performing my task???
Thank you.
The first transaction was from my tronlink wallet which I later discovered that the link copied from the changenow address was wrong
The same went with my binance that I still copied the changenow address and on pasting it, it gave a wrong address again which I don't understand why
Until I had to scan the QR and got the address sending another $98 that I used for the homework post
I think it was a copy and paste scam but I fell prey
I really don't know the details you would need to verify but I am really willing to send it so you can verify its no lie @sapwood
