Body:

I am seeking professional insight into a complex set of symptoms that developed specifically after I discontinued Escitalopram 4 years ago. Prior to this, I used the medication for several months with great success for generalized anxiety, but the following symptoms emerged only after cessation and have persisted ever since.

Primary Symptoms:

• Cognitive/Emotional: Constant Derealization (DPDR), chronic brain fog, and total emotional numbness. I feel completely detached and "flat."
• Respiratory: Persistent "Air Hunger" (feeling of incomplete inspiration). I experience involuntary sighing respiration during relaxation, which provides temporary cognitive clarity.
• Sensory Processing: Extreme tactile hypersensitivity. Contact with tight clothing, socks, or the back of a chair triggers immediate muscle hypertonia, exacerbated brain fog, and acute unrest.
• Postural/Autonomic: Inability to tolerate minor physical asymmetries (e.g., a crooked chair). I experience severe energy crashes (asthenia) after minor activity, meals, or nicotine, where I cannot keep my eyes open or sit upright.
• Relief: Symptoms are significantly mitigated only in a horizontal position (lying down).

Medical History: I have attempted several pharmacological interventions since these symptoms started, including Mirtazapine, Venlafaxine, Sertraline, Depakine, and Lamotrigine, all of which were ineffective. Olanzapine provided minor relief (likely due to improved sleep quality) but was discontinued due to side effects.

Questions:

1. Does this presentation align with any known long-term neurochemical changes or central sensitization syndromes following SSRI cessation?
2. Could the "Air Hunger" and the relief found in a horizontal position point toward autonomic dysfunction (Dysautonomia)?
3. What diagnostic path or specialized field (Neuropsychiatry, etc.) would you recommend for a case involving such severe sensory and postural triggers?

I need to share my story because I’m struggling to find anyone who feels the same way. Since stopping Lexapro (Escitalopram) 4 years ago, my anxiety has turned into a debilitating physical and mental nightmare. The most frustrating part is that Lexapro actually worked amazingly for me back then. I took it for months, my anxiety completely vanished, and I felt great. I only quit because I felt "cured."

But as soon as I stopped, everything collapsed. I started having symptoms I never had before. 4 years later, I'm still stuck here. Does anyone else feel like this?

1. The Cognitive & Emotional Void:

I'm in a constant state of Derealization and chronic brain fog. My thinking is never sharp.

Total Emotional Numbness: I feel completely numb—I have no emotions at all. It's like I'm a shell.

Severe Fatigue: I have zero energy. After any minor activity, eating, or smoking, I get an acute urge to lie down. Lying down is the only thing that gives me relief.

2. Air Hunger & Breathing Issues:

I feel like I can’t get a full breath.

When I relax, I start involuntarily deep sighing (sighing respiration). Strangely, this is the only thing that temporarily clears my brain fog.

3. Sensory & Postural Hell (Central Sensitization):

Tactile Hypersensitivity: I can’t stand the feeling of tight clothes, socks, or even a chair touching me. It immediately triggers muscle tension and brain fog.

Postural Discomfort: Even a tiny asymmetry (like a chair not being perfectly straight) makes me lose all focus and creates intense internal unrest. It makes it impossible to sit and work.

4. The Sugar/Caffeine Crash:

I drink one cup of coffee in the morning (not sure if it's hurting me).

Sweets give me a temporary boost, but then I "crash" so hard I can’t even keep my eyes open or sit up straight.

5. Medical Gaslighting:

Doctors just stare at me like idiots. They are literally just guessing and have no idea what’s wrong. They treat me like I'm making this up, but the physical pain and disconnection are real.

I’m in constant "control mode," analyzing every symptom. I forget what I’m saying mid-sentence. I feel like my nervous system is completely burned out.

Has anyone else experienced this long-term shift after quitting meds? How do you cope with the sensory issues and the need to be horizontal to feel "normal"?

I need to share my story because I’m struggling to find anyone who feels the same way. The most frustrating part is that Lexapro actually worked amazingly for me back then. I took it for months, my anxiety completely vanished, and I felt great. I only quit because I felt "cured" and well. But as soon as I stopped, everything collapsed and these new symptoms started—symptoms I never had before. Since stopping Escitalopram (SSRI) 4 years ago, my anxiety has turned into a debilitating physical and mental nightmare. So I had no such symptoms before. Now it is like derealization. So what I thought about is still anxiety triggering all of the current symptoms?

The Cognitive & Physical Void: I’m in a constant state of Derealization and chronic brain fog. My thinking is never sharp. what's even worse is that I feel completely emotionally numb—I have no emotions at all. I have low energy, I think it is more about mental energy than physical. After any minor activity, eating, or even smoking, I get an acute urge to lie down. Lying down is the only thing that gives me relief. If I don’t get enough sleep, everything becomes ten times worse—insomnia is a massive trigger for me.

Air Hunger & Breathing: I feel like I can’t get a full breath. But when I’m relaxing, I start involuntarily deep sighing (sighing respiration), and strangely, this is the only thing that temporarily clears my brain fog.

Tactile & Postural Hell (Central Sensitization): My body is in a state of constant tension (hypertonus). I’m always stretching, but it doesn't help. My skin is hypersensitive—wearing socks, tight clothes, or even feeling the back of a chair is unbearable. It triggers immediate tension and brain fog. Even a tiny asymmetry, like my chair not being perfectly straight, makes me lose all concentration and creates intense internal unrest. It makes it impossible to sit and work.

The Sugar and Coffee Cycle: I drink one cup of coffee every morning, but I'm not sure if it’s hurting me. When I eat sweets, I feel better for a bit, but then a few hours later, I "crash" so hard I can’t even keep my eyes open or sit up straight.

Concentration and Hyper-vigilance: I’m constantly in "control mode," analyzing every symptom. I can’t concentrate; I even forget what I was saying mid-sentence.

Medication History: I’ve tried Mirtazapine, Venlafaxine, Sertraline, Depakine, and Lamotrigine—none of them worked. Olanzapine helped a bit, probably because of the sleep, but I couldn't handle the side effects.

Does anyone else relate to this? Especially the tactile sensitivity and the need to be horizontal to feel "normal"? I feel like my nervous system is completely burned.. what you think? i quit lexapro 4 years ago. I don't believe so much time has passed in this shiit condition.

Now, when I go to doctors, they just stare at me like idiots. They are literally just guessing and have no idea what’s wrong with me. They treat me like I'm making this up, but the physical pain and disconnection are real.

Hi everyone, I’ve been struggling with a complex set of symptoms for a while now, and it’s reaching a point where it’s making daily life almost impossible. I wanted to share my story to see if anyone else experiences this specific "physical" brand of derealization.

My condition took a sharp turn for the worse after I stopped taking Escitalopram (Lexapro). What used to be "standard" anxiety transformed into a constant state of dissociation and physical dysfunction. I’ve tried several meds since (Mirtazapine, Venlafaxine, Sertraline, Depakine, Lamotrigine), but nothing has really touched the core of the issue. Olanzapine helped a bit with sleep, but the side effects were too much.

Symptoms:

Chronic Derealization & Brain Fog: I feel completely detached from my surroundings and myself. My thinking is never sharp; it feels like my head is filled with cotton.

Air Hunger (Sighing Respiration): I constantly feel like I can’t get a "full" breath. Paradoxically, when I’m relaxing, I start involuntarily sighing deeply, which actually provides a tiny bit of temporary relief for the brain fog.

Sensory Overload & Tactile Sensitivity: This is the hardest part. I can’t stand the feeling of tight clothes, socks, or even the back of a chair touching me. It causes immediate muscle tension, spikes my anxiety, and worsens the derealization.

Physical Exhaustion (Asthenia): I have zero energy. After eating, smoking, or any minor activity, I feel an overwhelming need to lie down.

The Sugar/Caffeine Cycle: Sugar gives me a temporary boost, but I "crash" so hard a few hours later that I can barely keep my eyes open or sit up straight. I also drink one cup of coffee in the morning—I’m not sure if this is helping or making the anxiety worse.

Hyper-vigilance: I am in a constant "control mode," scanning my body for symptoms and obsessing over finding a solution.

The Mental Struggle

My concentration is shot. I forget what I’m saying mid-sentence. Even tiny things, like my chair being slightly crooked, trigger intense internal unrest and make it impossible to focus on work. It feels like my nervous system is permanently stuck in "fight or flight" mode, but without the adrenaline—just the exhaustion and the "fuzziness."

Does anyone else relate to this intense physical sensitivity (tactile issues) combined with DPDR? How do you manage the "Air Hunger"? I feel like my body has forgotten how to just be relaxed. My case looks like exhaustion and a drain of body energy. im not sure

Any advice, shared experiences?

Or are these firms worth it at all, I don't know? Many firms are very subjective; they have very meaningless rules. The rule is one, you can avoid it, but then they force you and force you to invent their own interpretation of the rules. I haven't tried it yet, but I feel like it, for example, on CFT it works like this, first you go through the phases, when the issue of withdrawing money arises, then they check to determine if there is a violation, they invent something. Some people are paid half, if they make a profit.

preferably bybit to support, any CEX than firms that have only few asset.

I'm continuing from the previous short post.

It was January 2023, New Year’s time, when I deposited funds and $49 appeared on the exchange. Back then I was still on MEX Global. For scalping, it wasn’t a bad exchange. That’s how I started — just having fun with scalping. I picked one volatile asset to trade, and little by little I noticed that $1–2 was being added each day. I began to understand what I was doing. I enjoyed it; I wasn’t focused only on money. I was scalping — buy, sell — but it took a lot of time.

The first months were very difficult. The more funds I added, the easier it became, but until I reached $500 it was tough. It took months, I was at it day and night, but I enjoyed it and believed it would get easier over time. I thought it was better to struggle now. I became convinced that I had found an edge in the market, but it was exhausting — you had to sit there constantly. It felt more like a bot’s job.

When I reached $1,000 I already felt like a professional. It wasn’t a huge amount of money, but it felt like a million dollars because of how much effort I had put in. I kept thinking about how much I had managed to achieve. From $1,000 it became easier, I diversified my capital, and then I found an even better edge in futures trading. That was pure happiness — seeing hard work bring such results. I miss that time. To tell the truth, by mid‑year I already had around $8,000, and then suddenly MEX Global blocked me without warning. I was shocked — what happened? I thought about risk control, but I knew I hadn’t done anything wrong. They wouldn’t release my funds, my account was blocked. They kept ignoring me, dragging things out, and I was constantly waiting for some response. They never explained what was going on.

Eventually, I realized they were just stalling, hoping I’d give up. I threatened the operators, telling them to release my money or I would demand answers publicly. It’s a terrible feeling — after all the effort to climb to $8,000, the money is locked and you can’t withdraw. They told me, “Don’t do anything now, we’ll resolve it,” and after a while they wrote back: “Fine, take your money and leave.” I was stunned — if it was that simple, why did they make me worry for two weeks? I even said, “Let me leave some funds to keep trading,” but they told me, “No, no — take the money and don’t trade anymore. Just withdraw and go.” It was almost laughable. Was it because I was profitable that this happened?

Looking back, it was still a good time. I left and moved to Binance with $8,000, and started thinking about my future plans. Then I took a break for 1–2 months, practically hugging that $8,000, grateful I got it back. I began thinking about changing strategies so I wouldn’t burn myself out every single day. But in the end, I still hit burnout, and it even affected my health.

Scalping is stressful and unbelievably exhausting. That’s why I built an automated bot — using the same strategy — because a bot doesn’t get tired. By the end of the year, when the bull run had already started, I had around $26,000. I even gifted my friend $2,000, which helped him raise his capital, and then I gave him the bot to run as well. With it, he could make about 10% monthly on his capital.

I had separate bots trading on Binance, and at the same time I started preparing for the bull run with diversification — I bought several altcoins. Imagine what I managed to achieve in just one year. I always said: first I struggle, then it pays off. And that’s exactly what happened — I ended up with a bot that worked while I sat back, and it kept generating money. My hard work brought me here. The effort was rewarded. I began preparing specifically for the bull run, because when I calculated, my automated bot was already giving me a good ROI, but I thought long‑term strategies could also be profitable. Waiting for the bull run was tiring, because once I got used to working hard, I constantly wanted to trade. It turned out the bull run was actually more risky, but since I had diversification, my separate bots kept trading and generating monthly income. Later I even invented a new strategy. I discussed it with a chatbot — it explained one thing, I explained another. In the end, it told me it had never even heard of such a strategy.

Reactive hedging with lighter scalping was easier than what I had before on MEX Global, and lighter than what my bot was trading. At the same time, I was still using the bot, trading manually myself, and also running spot positions. They didn’t interfere with each other because the strategies were different and diversified. My altcoins went into losses — heavy losses. The expectation of a bull run turned out to be false. It dragged me into losses. In Manta alone I had bought $17K worth — a modular blockchain — and by the end I remember its total value wasn’t even $3,000. The rest also went into losses, and today basically all the alts are dead.

Overall, it meant that in the end I was working just to compensate for the losses from those alts. Buying alts was a mistake, although I still managed to raise my account to about $80K — around 2025. Without the altcoin losses, it would have been much higher. Then in March came the Binance incident that drained my capital — $19.1K from futures in a single day. I’ll explain that incident later, and why Binance couldn’t defend itself. Based on my materials, the Dubai regulator created a reform (rolebook 2.0 in May)and tightened rules on Binance, but it didn’t protect me. Binance only paid me $10.8K of the total loss after VARA got involved, and even that took me a month of struggle to get the truth acknowledged. They never answered any of my questions.

I let it go, thinking “fine, maybe they won’t repeat this again.” But in October the incident happened again, on a larger scale. In total, I lost $80K.Make your decisions in time — before it’s too late. Once you face a problem on the exchange, you won’t be able to change it afterward.

Now Pay attention to binance’s politics, to their actions — as I’ve described — and you’ll see how unfair offshore systems really are. They show respect only in words, while in practice they do the opposite. I want to tell you: do not trust CEX exchanges. I trusted for years the number one “reliable” exchange, but it wasn’t my trading that caused the problem — the exchange itself created it. Never in my plans did I imagine that something like this could ever happen to me. I thought I was on a trustworthy exchange, and that the “Safe Fund” existed to protect fairness. No — that’s just a façade, displayed only on the front page. Believe me. They say one thing in words and act in the opposite way. They are bureaucrats.

I’ll add this: DeFi — hyperliquidity — is the solution and the future against them.

I state in advance that I had two repeated incidents, both at different times. I submitted 8 questions, with the first three being the most difficult among them:

If I was bankrupt, how did I open a second position worth $35K?

If I was bankrupt, why did I pay more than 40% in total commissions across all positions (and on one position more than 100%)?

If I was not bankrupt, why were such large or undefined commissions deducted, and why didn’t the system fully liquidate the margin?

All three questions are dead ends. You can’t answer one without contradicting another, and whichever you try, the logic breaks. Subjectively, I believe the truthful answer would be: the system pre‑reserved commissions and then appropriated them at the end. I suspect the system has profiling built in — deliberately designed to quietly skim, to appropriate commissions as their main source of income, and to funnel those funds into the “safety fund.” Especially since this money goes into a non‑transparent fund. I was given a 10‑day deadline. The deadline was expiring, and I moved to escalation. I said: your licensing regulator will intervene and review the materials. Incoming messages are assessed by risk, with profile monitoring going on. Alongside the mention of the regulator, they quietly check the profile — I know this — “Is he a Dubai national?” If not, they don’t care. No threat, let it pass. He can’t do anything. They don’t check whether you are right or whether compensation is deserved. They only check how much nerve you have to push the case to the end. If they see risk, then they react.

It was the 14th day, and it was hard, but finally, in the last 4 days I managed to get the regulator interested. They looked at the materials and promised measures, but personally they said they couldn’t intervene legally. I contacted the exchange urgently, saying VARA should have contacted you, they even took my personal data. I warned them: I am monitoring the process, don’t dare lie or distort facts. I sat there for a month, but I hadn’t seen anything like this before. After those messages, three clicks followed in sequence — derivatives, complaints, escalation operator switched. That was the peak of fear. The parasites panicked all at once. “Stop, we will issue a resolution now,” they tried to close the case fairly before VARA made contact. Not even two hours passed before I received a letter from Legal — it was already the 14th day, deadline had expired.

They wrote to me: “We are investigating the case and will get back to you soon.”(check video material, there is dialogue) Probably, they couldn’t understand what connection I, a Georgian, had with Dubai’s regulator, or what VARA was planning. I signed an agreement with the exchange, with half compensation, and still closed the case unfairly under force majeure and coercion. I had no other choice, I was waiting for the regulator’s response, but due to jurisdiction, they couldn’t protect me. I had no backing from them, and with a six‑hour deadline, I risked losing even that agreement. VARA is in Dubai, their lawyers are in the UK. I received the NDA outside VARA’s working hours. My account was blocked.

When asked, they first claimed it was because of threats, then invented a “gambler” status, and finally said the account would only be unblocked if I signed the agreement. When you give in and sign, they still throw dust in your eyes. I refused to sign without two conditions being added. They sent a second draft, but externally they didn’t mark that they rejected those conditions or give any warning. It simply arrived, and naturally I thought the conditions had been included and updated. With no time left, I didn’t re‑read the entire agreement. I signed, and only later realised they had sent the same agreement again, deliberately to deceive. Neither of the two conditions was included. Legally, it didn’t suit them to have those clauses signed. That is my simple assessment — the answer. You cannot trust them. In words they sound good, but in practice they quietly do the opposite. It is a bureaucratic wall of injustice.

In the end I laughed somewhat and wrote another letter insistently: “Tell me something human beyond this, we’ve already finished this case.” And the answer? They didn’t write anything back.

Two separate incidents — one in March and one on October, 2025 - show the same functional failure pattern. Despite acknowledging system issues in chat, Binance insists prior settlements and NDAs remain binding and will not issue a contractual clarification. That contradiction prevents accountability.

Regulatory Coercion and Systemic Silence (The VARA Context)

The initial dispute resolution was directly precipitated by the involvement of the Regulatory Authority (VARA) in Dubai. VARA officially expressed interest in my material, signalling an imminent regulatory escalation. Binance’s Legal team urgently offered an immediate NDA/settlement on the express condition that I refrain from submitting materials to the regulator(The ten-day deadline had passed, and they showed no desire to reply to me. Nonetheless, it was Vara who prompted them to contact me swiftly on the 14th day to halt communication with vara). This demonstrates that compensation was not offered on merit, but was a direct transactional payment to secure user silence and avoid a formal VARA investigation into their system failures and user protection policies... After a month-long delay, VARA finally utilised my resources to set new benchmarks and initiate a reform in its policy concerning user safeguards and the management of systemic risks.

• March 2025: System malfunction triggered unfair account restriction and forced losses. I was pressured to sign a settlement/NDA to restore the account.  They attempted to justify my action and shift the responsibility onto me by labelling me as a 'gambler' and blocked my account proactively. First, the reason given was a threat, then they mentioned a 'gambler's program,' and finally, they suddenly stated that my account would be unlocked only if I signed the NDA agreement.
• Account Blockage & Coercion: Binance restricted my account and refused to reinstate it unless I signed an internal NDA agreement. The settlement text and the manner of presentation created a coercive environment: limited time, no meaningful opportunity for external counsel.
• April 17, 2025: The settlement agreement was signed under pressure. A second “draft” was sent but was identical; I signed while under time and financial pressure. System malfunction triggered unfair account restriction and forced losses.
• October 10, 2025: The same or materially similar system failure recurred. Evidence shows UI bankruptcy state + post-bankruptcy fees and execution anomalies(more than 100% was paid instead of 0.1%). I raised the repeat incident with Binance support.
• Post-October: Binance acknowledged system issues internally and via chat as an operational incident but refused to state whether a verified system fault nullifies or supersedes prior NDAs and settlements. They characterised the “Together Initiative” as “a gesture, not compensation” – a program 400M for the October incident.

·         Evidence shows commissions exceeding 100% of the executed trade value.. This proves a systemic malfunction that violated their own policies, not market risk or trades fault.

They remain indifferent until they perceive a risk.. The first example clearly demonstrates this: until VARA became involved in the process, there was no mention of an NDA or compensation. Furthermore, this NDA was signed unjustly - under deception, coercion, and in violation of internal procedures.

Binance, they tell you, "Give us the logs, we’ll investigate." Let’s be real, they aren’t investigating a damn thing. they give you a glimmer of hope just to string you along. A week goes by while you think they’re actually looking into it, and then they come back with a canned script saying there are no issues on their end. Since they are offshore, they expect you to just take their word for it. People actually fall for this nonsense. Honestly, even if Binance saw a blatant error in their own logs, they wouldn’t give a toss. Whether they know it or not, they simply don’t care.... Back then, my automatic #API bot was logging every single event on #Binance. It only slept for a minute during intervals. I was running an older version back then, managing everything manually on Linux using tmux and command lines. The bot logs every single move it makes on the server. So when the exchange tries to tell you that you don’t have the facts to prove anything, you just pull up the logs, and the beauty of it is that everything is right there. Every request sent and every response the server spat back is documented. You don’t even need a formal audit to see what was happening; it is dead simple to track when the API calls were hitting the account. "Was he actually using it? Oh, he was?" That’s when they start getting serious. API logs are like having dangerous evidence in your hands since a log is literally a record of facts and events. But the truth is, they have way more logs than you do. They have every kind of log imaginable, which is more than you would ever even need. But in corporate bureaucracy, it doesn’t matter what they have; it only matters what you have. First, those parasites ask what you have and tell you to send it over so they can see it. If you’ve got nothing, they’ll just say they did nothing wrong and there is no issue here. If you do show them something, they’ll find a way to discredit the logs or deflect, or they will just sit back and assess the risk to see if you actually have anything serious on them. Then they ask if you have a video from that timeframe. Apparently, you’re supposed to have a video recorded with a second device from the exact moment the site crashed in October because it couldn't handle the load and started lagging. What a joke! Who on earth has that? They demand a recording from a separate camera because they claim a direct screen recording can be faked.... Yes — I handed over the logs, I submitted them, but they did not investigate the case. Before that, they tried to drag the investigation out, asking me for one thing and then another, but in the end they still didn’t investigate anything. Why? Because they claim they don’t see any “risk,” so why investigate. They keep saying out of thin air that there was no problem on their side, and they never show me any evidence. I’m supposed to trust them blindly. They tell me things without facts, and that’s absurd. When I ask them on what basis they’re saying this, they can’t show me anything. Yet I’m expected to trust them blindly. As a result, they don’t investigate anything at all.

I  stated in a private Binance chat that instead of video evidence, I have reliable API bot logs to prove the failure, and that the October incident was not a one‑time event on my account. I made it clear that a similar systemic failure had already been recorded earlier, and that the first incident was covered under an NDA.

My chronology is as follows:

• March: A systemic technical failure was recorded on my account. The Dubai regulator #VARA took interest in these materials, requesting relevant evidence and personal data.
• April: After the regulator got involved, #Binance urgently signed an NDA with me, setting a 1‑day deadline, which in reality was only a few hours.
• May: Exactly one month after the signing, #VARA published a new regulation — Rulebook 2.

This combination of facts raises serious questions. If the materials I provided were significant enough for the regulator to develop a new reform based on them, it is unclear what practical result this process yielded in terms of consumer protection. Furthermore, if the regulator realized that the issue concerned a technical systemic failure, what real measures were taken to eliminate it?

These questions became particularly acute in October, when the same type of technical failure recurred, the system failed again, and I lost funds once more. This circumstance indicates that either the reform failed to provide a real solution to the problem, or the systemic failure was never properly addressed from the beginning. In either case, I was left vulnerable to the same risk that had already been identified once before.

I repeat: this is the same recurring case. Back in March I was alone in experiencing it, but later it became a massive incident. Even before that, the regulator already knew about my case, but they didn’t take serious action. A regulator won’t react strongly to a single case except by issuing a reform — and even that was mostly for their own Dubai politics. They are bureaucrats; they won’t risk damaging their relationship with Binance over one case, because Binance pays for that license.

From my perspective, they stay silent until a powerful force demands answers or until a scandal breaks out. Then, once they see the scandal, they will act as if they had never heard of it before, and suddenly pretend that even removing Binance was necessary. They will do this because they cannot afford to let the regulator’s reputation be damaged on a large scale because of Binance. That’s politics.

But even in October there was no public pressure, no seriousness. People were convinced that this was “their risk,” while in reality the exchange takes no responsibility for the proper functioning of the system. What does “risk” have to do with it? The system should protect you from risk, not leave you exposed. Liquidations work, but nothing else does. People are persuaded that what happened is normal, and they give in. They trust the exchange 100%, whatever it says — but these are offshore entities. They will never admit “we failed.” They will never do that voluntarily. Look closely at what they write and how they act. They cannot be trusted. That’s the message this all conveys.

Binance knows that pursuing this through legal channels is extremely expensive for the average user. They know most people cannot afford arbitration or international litigation. They know redirecting to “external legal channels” effectively kills 99% of user claims.  And they rely on exactly that.

There was also one notable incident: in October, Edison — who had been affected — tried to move the case to Abu Dhabi, where the process would have been public and subject to independent evaluation. Naturally, this did not suit Binance. Watch what Binance did. At exactly that stage, everything changed.

Instead of letting the case proceed there, Binance immediately activated its mechanism — emergency arbitration — and shifted the process to another jurisdiction, in a closed format. In other words, before anything could begin in Abu Dhabi, Binance shut it down and acted quickly to prevent the dispute from starting there, because Abu Dhabi is a public court and a public conclusion could have come out of it. Binance could not risk that. If Edison had won in that court, then everyone affected by the October case would have won too. Binance saw that risk and launched a $30K case in China against him to block Abu Dhabi.

They invented a reason — accusing him of defamation — but the real motive was to avoid Abu Dhabi and push the case directly into China, where arbitration is closed and it’s very difficult for anyone to win. They did this out of fear, in January, to avoid a public scandal over the October case. An Abu Dhabi citizen was blocked politically, with fabricated reasons.

The case never went to the Abu Dhabi court. This doesn’t look accidental. The picture is very clear — whenever a case reaches the point where the technical details might be exposed publicly, the process is immediately shifted into a format where everything is closed and controlled. The Abu Dhabi direction was effectively shut down before the case could actually enter open hearings, and it was replaced with a process where transparency does not exist. A victory in Abu Dhabi by just one person would have meant Binance’s responsibility for the October case. Instead, they used legal tactics to intimidate Edison and block him.

The main problem in this sector lies in the mentality. Imagine how low the level is: most people, when trading spot, dismiss futures entirely — “I don’t trade futures, man.” They encourage you to stick to spot. Futures don’t suit them, even though a shared goal should suit everyone. But when such cases are allowed and tolerated in the market, it harms everyone. They fail to realize that the entire industry is being undermined and retail traders are fleeing.

Exchanges convince people that if something happens, the risk is on them. They shift the blame onto “risk” and exploit it. In reality, it’s not about risk — they simply don’t take responsibility for breaking their own rules. That’s how they started with me too: tricking me with “risk, risk.” If it works for them, fine — but they are violating their own written rules. The public has been convinced of this narrative, and now society itself stands against its own members and the industry as a whole.

People side with the exchange, even when the exchange blatantly breaks its own rules. They get away with it because no one holds them accountable. Offshore bureaucracy protects them. In my case alone, three of their internal policies were violated. They contradict themselves, and that’s why it’s unfair. What more proof do you need when a regulator approves your materials but your case is still closed unjustly?

They hide offshore, blame the incident on the client as far as possible, and sometimes silence the user with “goodwill” gestures or confidential agreements. They repeat the same patterns: reacting only when risk grows, taking measures only to protect their reputation. For them, fairness doesn’t exist. For example, with new incidents, they wait to see if reputational risk rises — if it does, they offer goodwill. In broader, mass cases, the reputational risk is higher.

I don't know what I did wrong? Why did everything turn out so senselessly? I can't move on to the next stage of life. I can't even continue trading. Isn't that what you call life turned upside down? Maybe crypto is the problem. Who, what would you learn from this story? I don't wish what I went through on anyone. No one. And that's why I wanted and considered it necessary for you to see the true face of costumed offshores. Such unjust events change people, make them evil, and ruin their lives. I want to go to war in Ukraine now...

 In this situation, any humane and kind word would be appreciated.

I’m gonna flex a little bit because, honestly, I’m feeling pretty good about this. And why not? There are a million ways to make money out there, but most require way too much grind. You either have a boss breathing down your neck, demanding clients, or you just end up failing after all that effort. My method for generating passive income is a fully automated system.

You just fire up the bot and it generates income on autopilot. I personally recommend a scalping bot because it’s basically like finding a market loophole. It trades on a scale that would exhaust any human. That’s exactly where the market's weakness lies - humans just can't keep up with that pace. All you need is a reliable system with solid risk management, a good setup, and some capital. Essentially, the bot is my strategy, my logic, and my code working instead of my hands. It’s programmed to trade exactly how I would, but on a software level. It works while I sleep.

The best part about having a bot is that you don’t need clients, you don’t have to compete with anyone, and you don’t need to win anyone's trust to make money. With this Python bot, I’m pulling in about 10% monthly returns on my capital. In the crypto world, that’s a fantastic percentage when you have proper risk management. I run it on a virtual machine (VPS) to make sure it stays online 24/7. My only overhead is a $7 Amazon VPS, which is more than enough for this bot. My older versions needed 4GB of RAM even on Linux, but I’ve optimized it so much that it runs perfectly on just 1GB now. My total monthly cost is just those $7, and the system is rock solid - it’s never gone down.

I’ve been making an income this way for over a year now. I still monitor it, mostly because I enjoy it and, honestly, I’m a bit addicted to it - especially when those Telegram notifications start hitting my phone with profit alerts. Even though it’s autonomous, watching it helps me spot tiny details I can tweak. Since I’ve got the free time, I keep refining it to reach that next level of perfection.

Now, I’m looking to diversify into other areas. When the money starts coming in, your thoughts just seem to fall into place. It’s so much easier to have good ideas when you have the capital to back them up. Everything needs money to start. In this capitalist world, opportunities to make 'easy' money are becoming rare. So right now, I’m building up my own capital to launch a serious crypto project of my own. I have a huge desire to see it through - with my own risk and my own capital.
