I looked into Blockchain Discussion Group and found they appear in the regulatory warnings database. Financial Markets Authority has issued a notice about this firm. Whether this is a misunderstanding or a serious concern, the fact remains that proper due diligence is essential. Always verify the regulatory status of any company before investing your hard-earned money.
Cons: Listed in IOSCO I-SCAN|May not be authorized in your jurisdiction
I signed up with Blockchain Discussion Group when my bank disappointed me and I searched for alternatives and the first red flag was the aggressive account manager who would not stop calling. After depositing, the promised support vanished. Withdrawals are delayed with endless excuses. I have reported them to the regulator.
Pros: Multi-currency support|Tax reports included
Cons: Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days|No dark mode on mobile
Do not believe the bonus offer from Blockchain Discussion Group. The turnover requirement is designed so you can never withdraw. I learned the hard way. I deposited from a blog post comparing services and the bonus terms were buried in pages of small print. My fault for not reading but their design is predatory.
Pros: Stable platform|Comprehensive tools
Cons: No crypto staking
I was contacted by Blockchain Discussion Group through social media. They promised guaranteed returns of 20-30% monthly. Being naive, I invested. The "account manager" pressured me to invest more and more. When I finally tried to take profit, my account was frozen and they stopped responding. Classic Ponzi/advance fee fraud.
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
The reporting at Blockchain Discussion Group is laughably bad. Tax documents are inaccurate, transaction histories have gaps, and trying to export data for your accountant is a nightmare. For a financial platform, getting the numbers right should be the bare minimum.
Pros: Multi-device support|Detailed reporting
Cons: Limited social trading features|Spreads widen during volatile periods
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Blockchain Discussion Group is not authorized by any legitimate financial regulator. They are operating illegally. The website looks very professional but it's all a facade. Please check the regulatory warnings database before investing with ANY company.
Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized
Several red flags with Blockchain Discussion Group: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Financial Markets Authority, (3) Their contact information is vague, (4) They pressure you to deposit quickly. I recommend everyone do thorough due diligence before investing with any company.
Cons: Unauthorized firm|Found in IOSCO warnings database
Blockchain Discussion Group offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.
Pros: Portfolio tracking tools|Customizable dashboard
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague|Limited demo account features
