President of digital asset management solution developer sees potential for policies to spur greater consumer and business adoption of cryptocurrencies and government investment in infrastructure.

NEW YORK, April 20, 2023 (Newswire.com) - President Biden recently signed an executive order establishing a national policy on digital assets, including cryptocurrencies. The order creates an opportunity for policies that, if designed properly, could promote wider adoption of cryptocurrencies by consumers or businesses, according to Gordon Bell, President of Legacy Suite, developers of a comprehensive digital asset management solution including a crypto wallet and monitoring. 

The executive order, signed March 9, recognizes the tremendous scope of digital assets, including cryptocurrencies. The market capitalization of cryptocurrencies is more than $1 trillion, and about 16% of Americans - approximately 40 million people - have invested in, traded, or used cryptocurrencies. 

Bell, a Harvard-educated financial analyst with three decades of experience in investment banking and portfolio management, sees the Biden Administration's action as a potential boon for the digital asset field.  

"While government regulation can often hinder a business, in this case, we believe a supportive regulatory environment can play a significant role in inspiring the mass adoption of cryptocurrency, by providing a clear legal framework for its use and reducing its perceived risks," Bell said.  

The executive order addresses multiple issues, several of them essential to the growth of digital assets. They include: 

• Developing policies to protect consumers, investors and businesses.
• Supporting technological advances and responsible development of digital assets, while prioritizing privacy and security and reducing climate impacts.
• Promoting equitable access to safe and affordable financial services, with an approach to digital asset innovation that aids communities lacking access to financial services.

Bell cited the example of the regulation of security token issuances, or any issuances, as a means of providing investor protection and benefiting the crypto sector as a whole.  

"Taken as a whole, government regulations can help establish a sense of legitimacy and trust in the cryptocurrency market, providing a level of certainty and stability that is crucial for consumer acceptance," he said. 

Bell hopes to see the executive order lead to measures designed to prevent fraud, protect consumers, and ensure that exchanges and other cryptocurrency-related businesses comply with anti-money laundering and know-your-customer regulations. 

However, Bell said the Biden policies should go beyond measures that inspire consumer confidence, to providing direct support to the cryptocurrency sector.

One powerful step would be government investment in blockchain technology, the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies. "That would demonstrate a commitment to innovation and support the development of a robust and secure digital infrastructure," Bell said. "In turn, that would encourage the private sector to develop more use cases for blockchain and cryptocurrencies, which can ultimately spur wider adoption." 

Finally, government tax policies also can play a strong role in promoting widespread adoption of digital assets, Bell said. He suggested tax incentives, such as exemptions for certain types of cryptocurrency transactions from taxes, or tax breaks for businesses that use digital assets for payments, as tools to encourage transactions in digital assets. 

"Clearly, the Biden Administration recognizes the enormous potential benefits of digital assets, but also the potential risks to consumers from rapid growth with no oversight," Bell said. "Having one unifying framework for the government's cryptocurrency policies can inspire confidence in the market and facilitate the transition to a more decentralized, digital economy."

Developer of password manager and crypto wallet solutions offers tips on how to keep wallets protected from new cyberattack.

NEW YORK, March 29, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Legacy Suite, developer of digital asset management solutions, warns crypto and Ledger users against "Address Poisoning" attacks that can steal their funds.

Scammers are striking crypto users, including Ledger users, by "poisoning" their account via sending a small amount of crypto, usually USDT, MATIC, TRX, or even NFT, often imitating a transaction recorded in the user's transaction history. It looks very similar to the user's own address, with the goal to grab the scammer's address and send funds to their account by mistake.

Check Every Single Character in a Wallet Address

"Address poisoning is a type of cyber-attack in which an attacker attempts to steal funds from a cryptocurrency wallet by modifying the wallet's address," said Azaz Ahmed, chief technology officer of Legacy Suite. "In this attack, the attacker replaces the legitimate address of the wallet with their own address, which allows them to redirect any funds sent to the wallet to their own account."

The scammer makes a custom address with specific characters that are nearly identical to the owner's address. It often includes the same first and last characters. It is important to check every single character in one's wallet address before sending any transaction.

The scammer then sends a very small amount of currency, even $0, via the almost matching dummy wallet, which poisons one's transaction history.

How to Protect Yourself

Legacy Suite offers the following suggestions for safeguarding against address poisoning:

·         Stop copying and pasting your wallet address from your transaction history

·         Manually check your address so it is an exact match before sending any funds

·         Use your wallet's contact book to manage addresses used often

·         Be aware of anyone sending tiny amounts of cryptocurrency

·         Double-check your transaction details on your Ledger

Legacy Suite has a wallet monitoring service designed to keep crypto assets secure 24/7 so that one can quickly take action to prevent any potential losses. "Legacy Suite's wallet protection services, such as wallet monitoring and emergency backup wallet, help to protect against critical threats by providing additional layers of security to your cryptocurrency wallets," Ahmed said.

Wallet monitoring constantly monitors activities associated with one's wallet in case any unauthorized changes occur in real time. The owner is immediately notified if any unusual activity is detected like the addition or modification of a new or existing address allowing for prompt action and the prevention of any unauthorized access to one's funds.

"Legacy Suite's Lifeline, emergency backup wallet, is a service that provides you with a secure backup of your cryptocurrency wallet," Ahmed said. "In the event that your wallet is compromised, you can quickly transfer your funds to another wallet. This protects your funds from being lost or stolen in the event of an attack."

The wallet protection services are an additional layer of security to cryptocurrency wallets and protect them from fraud and other types of cyber-attacks.

Crypto demand is surging after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

NEW YORK, March 22, 2023 (Newswire.com) - With the fall of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, Legacy Suite has seen the price of cryptocurrency skyrocket, with Bitcoin surpassing $28,000 per coin, its highest level since June of 2022, and investors fearing more bank meltdowns. Amidst this, Legacy Suite announces its newly developed complete end-to-end solutions, providing first-class digital asset management for individuals who wish to engage in crypto securely. Legacy Suite's latest technology offers complete end-to-end solutions, providing first-class digital asset management for individuals who wish to engage in crypto securely.

"There are a lot of uncertainties right now about what people should do with their money," Karan Malik, Legacy Suite's Head of Web3 Strategy, said. "The two banks were shut down by regulators, and other regional bank stocks went down while the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) reassured depositors that their funds were safe.

"Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are built on a blockchain in a decentralized structure that is not controlled by just one entity," Malik added. "The argument for decentralization and the adoption of cryptocurrency has become more valid after the banks' collapse.

"As we see more migration to the decentralization mindset, Legacy Suite provides the necessary safety precaution measures and responsibilities that come with self-custody of those assets," Malik continued.

Self-custody refers to individuals managing digital assets and cryptocurrencies without relying on an intermediary. It involves securing and controlling private keys or seed phrases necessary to access and transfer digital assets. But self-custody comes with the responsibility of managing the security of the digital assets and the risks involved.

Self-custody cryptocurrency wallets are secure depending on how the private key is kept safe through software, hardware, and common security measures, including physical access to the wallet. If a private key is compromised through fraud or theft, the digital assets can end up controlled by a third party.

"It is important to create and store private keys and their backups in a secure manner," Malik said. "Legacy Suite urges users to take ownership of their digital assets. Our platform is equipped to facilitate self-custody and ensure estate planning is inclusive of both physical and digital assets.

"The goals of Legacy Suite are simple: privacy and security," Malik continued. "Our platform is a shield to safeguard digital assets and vital information through cutting-edge technology and encrypted security, regardless of size."

With more users moving away from centralized exchanges (CEX) following the FTX collapse, Legacy Suite provides its users peace of mind knowing their assets are secure.

NEW YORK, February 21, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Legacy Suite, a leading provider of digital asset preservation services, is revolutionizing digital asset protection by providing cutting-edge solutions that cater to the ever-evolving needs of the cryptocurrency market. With the increasing demand for secure digital asset management, Legacy Suite is leading the way by providing innovative solutions that provide users with unparalleled protection and peace of mind.

According to Glassnode on-chain data analyzed by Cryptoslate, only 22% of Bitcoin's total supply is moving and changing hands, indicating that the vast majority of Bitcoin has moved off centralized exchanges (CEX) and into non-custodial wallets. With more users than ever before holding and accumulating, it's more important for people to use the right tools to secure their digital assets adequately.

Every reputable CEX in the industry provides users with a basic custodial hot wallet. Because custodial wallets involve the exchange holding the private key, a third party is ultimately responsible for safeguarding a user's funds. Therefore, relinquishing control of one's private keys is a major reason why custodial wallets are considered less secure than self-custodial wallets.

Legacy Suite's digital asset preservation services offer users a new level of security. Through its innovative tool LegacyLifeline, Legacy Suite enables users to pre-authorize asset transfers on their self-custodial wallets and quickly execute smart contracts. This advanced feature helps avoid instances of assets being held or frozen on exchanges, providing users with additional peace of mind regarding the smooth transacting of their digital assets.

With Legacy Suite's Wallet Monitoring, users can stay informed about their crypto assets and make better decisions about their spending and investments. Wallet Monitoring provides comprehensive, real-time monitoring of multiple cryptocurrency wallets, ensuring the safety and security of users' digital assets. The platform monitors wallets for suspicious activity and sends real-time alerts on inbound and outbound transactions, allowing users to take action quickly to prevent potential losses.

Its Emergency Wallet features a secure, convenient, and hassle-free solution in case of security breaches or loss of private keys. With traditional blockchain technology, losing private keys means losing the wallet permanently; in the event of a security breach or loss of keys, Emergency Wallet allows users to back up assets with one click instantly.

Abelius Capital AG to launch 'SURF Reward', an internet browser extension that monetizes advertisements into cryptocurrency.

DÜSSELDORF, Germany, February 16, 2023 (Newswire.com) - German company Abelius Capital AG has announced the launch of its Surf2earn internet web browser extension, SURF Reward. The extension will enable users to view selected advertisements in exchange for SURF tokens. The company has also announced an IDO for the SURF token, which will run on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). 

The Problem with Ads 

The Internet advertising industry is worth hundreds of billions of dollars, but almost none of those profits go to the people who are consuming the ads. As a byproduct of this issue, internet users frequently turn to tools like AdBlockers to hide ads, resulting in companies not reaching their potential customers and users sometimes being restricted in accessing various sites. 

What is SURF Reward?

SURF Reward offers a solution to this problem with its 'Surf2Earn' extension, which is compatible with all major web browsers. The extension removes the majority of the advertising that the user would ordinarily be forced to view, replacing them with much fewer, select ads controlled by SURF Reward. 

Armin Heinrichs, Founder of SURF Reward, stated: 

"Companies make millions of dollars when internet users are forced to watch unwanted advertisements. SURF Rewards enables its users to remove the majority of advertisements and earn crypto rewards with our revolutionary Surf2Earn-enabled web browser extension."

By exchanging individual advertising spaces with its own advertising partners, SURF Reward is able to take profits from the webmasters and give them directly to their users, in the form of SURF tokens. This short explanatory YouTube video explains in detail the idea and functionality of the SURF Reward browser extension.

Surf2Earn

The Surf2Earn concept distributes the advertising revenue intelligently, so not only the user is rewarded, but also the liquidity and the associated value increases steadily through use. The SURF token will run on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and will be a reward and payment method for all users. 

SURF Tokenomics 

Token Symbol: SURF

Name: SURF Reward

Platform: BEP-20 / Binance Smart Chain (BSC)

Total Supply: 1,000,000,000 SURF

The company urges crypto users to take sole possession of their wallet's private keys following a crypto billionaire's warning.

NEW YORK, February 16, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Legacy Suite, a leading provider of digital asset preservation services, is urging users to take ownership of their digital assets, announcing that its platform is equipped to facilitate self-custody and ensure estate planning is inclusive of both physical and digital assets, allowing the probate process to proceed in accordance with the owner's original intent.

During a Binance-run Twitter Spaces on Dec. 14, 2022, Binance CEO Changpeng 'CZ Zhao urged caution to users utilizing self-custody wallets, warning that in most cases, private keys are improperly secured. Although the billionaire CEO has advocated for self-custody for years, even stating that self-custody is a 'fundamental human right,' he remarked during the Twitter Spaces that, "For most people, for 99% of people today, asking them to hold crypto on their own, they will end up losing it."

"I believe that digital assets are here to stay, but that we're still so early in the game that managing digital assets is still a cumbersome and complex process for the novice and average holders," said Gordon Bell, CEO of Legacy Suite. "Our suite of estate planning solutions is purpose-built to help people navigate the complexities of digital assets and their integration into the traditional probate process."

Self-custody refers to individuals holding and managing their own digital assets and cryptocurrencies without relying on a third-party custodian or intermediary. The process involves securing and controlling one's private keys or seed phrases, which are necessary to access and transfer digital assets. 

Self-custody is regarded as the best way to maintain control and privacy over one's assets and reduce the risk of theft or loss due to third-party custodians being hacked, going bankrupt, or engaging in fraudulent activities. However, self-custody also comes with the responsibility of managing one's own security and being aware of the risks involved.

Legacy Suite's platform offers a full line of estate planning services:

• Legacy Suite™ - Design an end-of-life plan, document and secure life's most meaningful moments, and share it with future generations.
• Legal Suite - Legal Suite allows users to leave precise details following their passing and minimizes estate planning costs. In addition, users can make updates anytime and anywhere, safeguarding loved ones from the frustration, red tape, and stress of the aftermath.
