Vent: I lost $500 on a crypto wallet that locked me out for a political tweet

Honestly, I thought decentralized meant free speech, but my funds got frozen after I criticized a project on their official Discord, so has anyone found a platform that actually won't censor you?

Decentralized doesn't mean consequence-free. If you break a project's rules in their own house, like their Discord, they have every right to protect their community. Kimfisher's Telegram boot shows projects will guard their space. The real issue is expecting a private platform to be a public square.

Remember when they said code was law?

Wait, so they can just lock a wallet based on something you said in a chat? That's wild. I had something kinda similar happen where I got booted from a project's Telegram for asking too many questions about their token release schedule. Makes you wonder who actually holds the keys, you know? Feels less like a bank and more like a club with moody bouncers.
