SIM

Rare-Energy-4357

Your current security setup, featuring a strong password combined with hardware token (physical) Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), places your brokerage account at the highest level of individual security, making the probability of a successful hack exceptionally low. While precise hack statistics for individual accounts at Interactive Brokers or Charles Schwab are unavailable, this configuration effectively neutralizes the two most common attack vectors: weak passwords and phishing/SIM-swapping attacks that bypass SMS-based 2FA. The remaining risk shifts primarily to your personal device security and social engineering (phishing), which must be mitigated by consistently securing your email account (the "master key") with the same physical 2FA token and by always manually typing the broker's web address instead of clicking links in emails. By adopting these layered measures, you make your account a low-priority, high-effort target for attackers, who will invariably pivot to easier victims.

InvestingMonkeys

Really no company should use SMS for 2FA or backup options. It's not secure and SIM swapping is a real threat. Software authenticators or hardware keys are the only solutions.

random20190826

Nope. That's not it. This is only true if you only need a username and a password to get in. If it has SMS 2FA, and that SMS can be used to reset the password, even if you only use a Live DVD to boot into your computer to conduct your investment activities, you will be compromised when someone can SIM swap you. If, on the other hand, they use TOTP authentication, you are in big trouble if your seed is leaked. Of course, we know the most secure method to handle online accounts is a FIDO2 compliant security key. This is physical, and the hacker can't do anything unless they are in physical possession of the key.

random20190826

No, it doesn't. It depends on the brokerage firm you use. If they decide to secure their accounts against hacking, you are likely OK. If they don't, and your information is leaked and you get SIM swapped, it's just like you have $1, 000, 000 cash in your home and it got burglarized and it's gone.

random20190826

This is why brokerage firms should not use SMS as default or fallback authentication. The truth is, if someone can SIM swap you and they know your username, and the bank or brokerage uses SMS, the hacker can reset your password. At that point, a crime has been committed against you and it's time to call the police. The only problem is that if the bank or brokerage says you authorized the transaction and refuse all reimbursement/compensation, you might be looking at suing the bank/brokerage/cell carrier/thief who took your money. The question is, how do you even come up with money to hire a lawyer if your money was stolen? Not to mention that banks and brokerages with lawyers are better represented than you, a self-represented plaintiff who likely never went to law school?

BigEdsHairMayo

The $100k is raised out of thin air by a python script who then posts the comment to an API on an account with a spoofed SIM. I'm guessing.

I can comment on ASTS as I did tons of DD and been invested for almost 2 years now. This is the best [representation](https://www.reddit.com/r/ASTSpaceMobile/comments/1o9lyxd/comment/nk5uq7s/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) of what ASTS wanna achieve. The tech is best for D2C, big satellites > small satellites. There is really only 2 players in D2C market, which is ASTS & Starlink. Starlink uses repurposed Swarm tech (which they purchased), so it has a limitations which ASTS does not have, since Abel (CEO ASTS) built the satellites with this in mind. Mobile market is huge, (almost) every person has a phone which if its not connected is worthless. There are dead zones, or straight up whole areas that do not have connection. ASTS does not need special equipment, just a phone or any device with SIM card. Its military use is HUGE, Fairwinds tested ASTS and they were ecstatic about the fact they dont need any additional equipment, as well as the strength, speed and quality of connection ASTS was able to provide. Mind you that was BB1 version, BB2 version are soon to be launched and should have 10x the capacity of BB1. My thesis is that at some point, when ASTS can build and launch enough satellites for global coverage + extra capacity, MNO's will price their service into all plans. For relatively small extra fee ($2-5 based on market) all data plans would have included always on connection.

> If it were easy to extract keys from hardware, we'd be seeing a lot more SIM card and credit card spoofing than we do. Yes. It's easier to buy/bribe/steal the phone number by tricking the phone company into changing the owner. Same risk here; just steal/buy/borrow the camera maker's master key and now you can mint your own! And what happens when this stolen root CA is discovered? Every camera that was ever made using that now stolen key must be distrusted. That's going to go over _really well_ with the people that spend $$$ on cameras and expect them to just work so they can earn money.

Already-Price-Tin

> Nothing also stopping a full reverse engineering of a camera, obtaining the private key, and then using that to forge your own 'real' images. No, that's generally not feasible in any implementation that already uses current industry best practices for storage of hardware keys. Those chips are designed to zero out when tampered with, and that is the entire basis for hardware keys (including credit cards, touchless access keys, yubikeys and similar 2FA tokens, cell phone SIM cards, the secure enclave/TPM on pretty much any modern smartphone, tablet, or laptop). If it were easy to extract keys from hardware, we'd be seeing a lot more SIM card and credit card spoofing than we do. The other concern is much more likely, that someone can take a picture of a generated image (or a combination, like how the behind the scenes on how they implement the special effects on The Mandalorian with real in-camera shoots of scenes lit up in a 360º screen surrounding the set).

eSIM is the most convenient way when travel. So many travel eSIM providers out there you can choose and set up prior to travelling. Some are often offering discount. Better than handling physical SIM cards.

Stop chasing this stuff. I will give you one good suggestion, and I've done a TOPN of work on this company. stock is MDAI ( Spectral AI). Put all of your money into it, but DO NOT look at it for at least the next 2+ years. This is a company that fits a need, especially with hospitals taking on the brunt of the work , thanks to Trump's bill. The device is getting great reviews, and the word of mouth has already placed it in hospitals in Australia ( for trial and feedback for now). FDA approval might come before the end of this year. I've looked into the whole management. The former CEO ( still has the most shares) spun off a company called SIM IP. This guy knows how to make money from patents sitting collecting dust. If you buy MDAI, you will get a small share of their spinoff. I've spoken with people that have used the device at hospitals, and they have said its a game changer.. and once it is in hand-held devices,... look out. Nobody will be able to replicate them for at least 15 years ( because of patents). Do your own research.. but that is my suggestion to you

DBMF, KMLM, and CTA are the most popular diversifiers. Add SIM to the end of DBMF or KMLM to extend the range of the backtesting dates. CTA has only limited historical data.

The only thing Apple (to my knowledge) have ever used it for, despite being the exclusive Liquidmetal licensee for consumer hardware, is the pointy thing to push out the SIM slot, which they since have eliminated in the North American market. How much money is there to be made by a hinge made by this stuff in the scale Apple wants to pay?

microfutures

Not sure what your financial goal is or what you want to do. Trade? Long term invest? Interested in trading on margin? Futures? Or options? 1. Don't buy a course. Any course. All of the information is out there for free. Play around with learning the basics on Youtube for whatever instrument you want to play with like futures or options. There's many great videos out there. Don't understand a concept? Search up a video on that specific topic. Then you can play around in SIM which is where you can get a feel for how a platform works (even if it's not RH, but it will be similar) and understand the life cycle of the trade as you develop an "edge".

microfutures

tl;dr I don't think you're ready for options. Certainly stick to paper. Learn the greeks to see how prices change. SIM fill prices aren't truly realistic and the risk of early assignment doesn't exist, just keep that in the back of your mind as you transition to live. 90%-90% win rate is great, but we don't know what your strategy is. Ironically, a super high win-rate trade isn't great for at least selling premium. I'm instantly assuming it's someone selling 5 delta, 0DTE, contracts for pennies and the problem with this is that 1 losing trades can wipe out a bunch of wins. Risking $190 for $9? Hmm... Stop losses on 0DTE? No. Prices fluctuate and fluctuate quick. I regularly do 0DTE and have been in countless positions where the price swings heavily against me, but then swings back positive an hour or two later. The contracts I sold aren't even ITM, it's just that the IV increased.

Fun-Sundae4060

For the first portion you can use www.testfol.io. There are some tickers that are simulated to much longer periods that you can access using SIM at the end of the ticker symbol. For the other portion of what you want with the rebalancing you have to make your own logic on Google Sheets or Excel and grab the financial data and parse it in columns then execute it. =GOOGLEFINANCE() to pull financial data.

I bought an AT&T hotspot device with an employee discount for $150. It was a nighthawk but for SIM cards, I used it on a $20 unlimited data iPad plan by using a fake iPad imei. This was my home internet for nearly 2 years. Eventually AT&T nerfed this & capped the data speeds on this old forgotten plan. I sold my nighthawk on ebay for $230 because AT&T raised the price at some point. Internet locally was $75 compared to the $20

DMN_LQMT

Yes, I added that LQMT to my screen name as it was the only reason I joined Reddit at the time. To be clear, I am not a trader, a pumper, or fanboy. I have been working in global advanced manufacturing R&D for decades in 36 countries, written two books, and a long term investor. This company had been around for a long time bringing this innovative material to commercialization. It takes a long time to disrupt an industry, but many of us believe it is a game changer and the time has come. Apple has been involved with the company and is reported by Ming to be using it in the upcoming iPhone Fold. The SIM ejector tool that accompanied older iPhones is made from LiquidMetal. The new Evie ring by Movano uses LiquidMetal. They are “currently prototyping a premium credit card product for first tier US based financial institution utilizing lqmt unique alloy to create beautiful thin cards to be used for their premium cc line” (from the last concall). Also from that CC transcript: "Last year, I communicated that we were pursuing a startup medical tool company, which makes medical devices for alleviating the effects of tendonitis. We completed the prototype phase in 2024, and I’m happy to announce that this part is currently in general production and is reflected in our 2024 revenues. This company is also seeking FDA approval and we’re delighted to have a satisfied customer who has chosen to adopt our technology. Other opportunities in the medical tools industry that we are currently prototyping include an application for a medical Anvil stapler device, an application for an inhaler device and an application for cochlear implants for the hearing industry. Also, we announced during the middle of twenty twenty four that we secured our first MIM order for a minimally invasive surgical application, utilizing jaw components that grab and manipulate suturing needles and tissue during surgery." Add to that the current Chairman of the Board and major investor Prof. Lugee Li, will manage the new wholly-owned Liquidmetal Asia Holdings. This is not a typical Penny stock, and from its assets in the posted article, you can see that it is healthy. We believe that the company is now undergoing commercialization and the time to jump on board is now. We offer this information to extend this opportunity to others. DO YOUR OWN DD, and don’t bother with the nonsense and negative ticks here. Take or leave it, we don’t care. This thing will blast off on its own, but do watch it and maybe you can catch it on the way up.

I'm saying that people "caring about privacy and thus they go with Apple" is like a 14 year old sipping his first beer and thinking he's ready for a rager, if they actually cared they'd understand that the privacy features Apple has in their iPhones are tissue-thin. Apple implements policy with different countries that are antithetical to the very idea of digital privacy. They like to advertise privacy in the US in particular because the US doesn't drag people out of their beds at night because they have opposing political viewpoints or criticize the government, but other countries do. Privacy is just a "marketable point" for convenience that Apple likes to use when they selectively uphold it for different countries. Apple stores iCloud data for Chinese users on servers operated by a government owned company (GCBD). The Chinese government has legal and technical access to user data if you're Chinese. They self-censor apps critical of the Vietnamese government. Don't even get me started of what they did in Russia before we had sanctions on them. The US? All your data is free and only you can access it! (if you enabled the end-to-end encryption manually otherwise we can access all your iCloud data). It's opportunistic and you know it. No one who considers their digital privacy a major concern is buying an iPhone. If they wanted a "secure" phone they'd go to their local Radioshack in a mask and pay in cash for a burner phone/SIM. that they can load a custom OS that is strictly focused on privacy

As per GRONK Apple has been exploring **Liquidmetal**, a series of amorphous metal alloys developed by Liquidmetal Technologies, since securing an exclusive license for its use in consumer electronics in 2010. These alloys, primarily zirconium- and titanium-based, are known for their high tensile strength (nearly twice that of titanium alloys), excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and ability to be molded like thermoplastics due to their non-crystalline structure.[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquidmetal)[](https://techcrunch.com/2010/08/09/apple-buys-out-liquidmetal-patents-to-stay-one-step-ahead-in-materials-game/) ### Key Points on Apple's Use of Liquidmetal: 1. **Early Adoption**: Apple first used Liquidmetal for the SIM card ejector pin in the iPhone 3G, a small, non-essential component chosen to test the material’s manufacturing capabilities. The pin is notably strong and inflexible, showcasing the alloy’s durability.[](https://www.cultofmac.com/news/apple-already-uses-liquidmetal-in-mystery-product-competition-answer)[](https://www.businessinsider.com/liquidmetal-inventor-atakan-peker-apple-will-use-it-in-a-breakthrough-product-2012-5) 2. **Patents and Development**: - Apple has been granted multiple patents related to Liquidmetal, including techniques for mass-producing thin sheets (up to 6,000 km annually, 3 meters wide, 15 mm thick) and forming 3D glass components using liquid metal or molten salt.[](https://appleinsider.com/articles/13/07/17/patent-reveals-apples-process-for-mass-producing-liquidmetal-alloy)[](https://macdailynews.com/2024/08/23/apple-granted-76-u-s-patents-covering-liquid-metal-for-device-components-spatial-audio-and-more/) - Patents also cover using Liquidmetal for device housings, touch-sensing surfaces, and components like meshes, actuators, and sensors, potentially for iPhones, iPads, MacBooks, and Apple Watches.[](https://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2020/03/two-apple-watch-inventions-cover-the-use-of-new-materials-such-as-liquid-metal-polymers-advancing-audio.html)[](https://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2017/03/apple-patent-describes-using-liquid-metal-metallic-glass-for-the-backside-of-an-iphone.html)[](https://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2018/08/apple-granted-patents-for-liquid-metal-iphone-parts-and-idevices-or-macbooks-integrating-sidewall-displays.html) - A 2014 patent discussed integrating glass (possibly sapphire) with Liquidmetal bezels to enhance iPhone durability.[](https://www.businessinsider.com/apple-patent-liquidmetal-2014-5) 3. **Recent Applications**: - Apple is reportedly planning to use Liquidmetal in the hinges of a foldable iPhone, expected in 2026, to improve durability, screen flatness, and reduce creasing. Dongguan EonTec is cited as the exclusive supplier.[](https://www.macrumors.com/2025/03/21/apple-liquid-metal-foldable-iphone-hinges/) - There are indications Liquidmetal is already used in small parts of the Apple Watch, such as strap components or internal brackets, though not as the main body due to cost.[](https://www.reddit.com/r/AppleWatch/comments/zp81ek/apple_is_finally_using_liquidmetal_in_the_watch/) - Posts on X suggest excitement about Liquidmetal in the foldable iPhone, with some noting its high cost (estimated starting price of ~$2,200 USD). 4. **Challenges and Outlook**: - Liquidmetal’s high cost and immature manufacturing infrastructure have limited its use in large-scale applications like device casings. In 2012, co-inventor Atakan Peker estimated Apple would need $300–500 million and 3–5 years to mature the technology for mass production.[](https://www.businessinsider.com/liquidmetal-inventor-atakan-peker-apple-will-use-it-in-a-breakthrough-product-2012-5) - Recent advancements, like the EPV-HPDC (Entire Process Vacuum High-Pressure Die Casting) process, claim to reduce costs by ~30%, making broader adoption more feasible.[](https://www.reddit.com/r/AppleWatch/comments/zp81ek/apple_is_finally_using_liquidmetal_in_the_watch/) - Peker predicted Apple would eventually use Liquidmetal in a “breakthrough product” with innovative design, difficult to replicate due to Apple’s exclusive license.[](https://www.iphoneincanada.ca/2012/05/02/liquidmetal-inventor-apple-will-find-a-way-to-use-this-technology-in-a-breakthrough-product/)[](https://www.businessinsider.com/liquidmetal-inventor-atakan-peker-apple-will-use-it-in-a-breakthrough-product-2012-5) 5. **Exclusivity**: Apple’s license, extended multiple times (last noted through 2015), grants perpetual, exclusive rights for consumer electronics, limiting competitors’ access. Other companies, like Nokia and Samsung, used Liquidmetal in flip phones before Apple’s exclusivity.[](https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/49pdl5/apples_era_of_liquid_metal_is_set_to_begin/)[](https://www.iphoneincanada.ca/2012/05/02/liquidmetal-inventor-apple-will-find-a-way-to-use-this-technology-in-a-breakthrough-product/)[](https://9to5mac.com/guides/liquidmetal/) ### Why Limited Use So Far? - **Cost**: Liquidmetal is expensive, making it impractical for entire device bodies.[](https://appleinsider.com/articles/13/07/17/patent-reveals-apples-process-for-mass-producing-liquidmetal-alloy) - **Manufacturing Complexity**: The lack of established infrastructure delays large-scale adoption.[](https://www.businessinsider.com/liquidmetal-inventor-atakan-peker-apple-will-use-it-in-a-breakthrough-product-2012-5) - **Material Properties**: While strong, Liquidmetal is susceptible to metal fatigue and catastrophic failure without visible warning, limiting its use in critical components.[](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquidmetal) ### Future Prospects Apple’s ongoing patents and reported plans for the foldable iPhone suggest Liquidmetal will play a larger role in future devices, likely starting with critical components like hinges or internal parts before expanding to casings. The material’s strength, lightness, and moldability could enable innovative designs, aligning with Apple’s focus on premium, durable products.[](https://www.macrumors.com/2025/03/21/apple-liquid-metal-foldable-iphone-hinges/)[](https://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2017/03/apple-patent-describes-using-liquid-metal-metallic-glass-for-the-backside-of-an-iphone.html)

Are you day trading options or what? Give us a little more context on your positions and methods. I’ve “dabbled” for years. SIM account where I’m taking it serious, 1 month and almost 100% my account. Started at 2k. My method, I simply read the price action. I get a big picture where it’s heading, zone in on lower time frames not only for entries and exits, but to watch the buying pressure in action. I’ll buy calls if we are trending up, depending on how hard we are tending will determine ITM/OTM. I will also just as quickly sell puts. You should be able to scalp some profits either way, as long as you can half way read a graph. Another key thing, I will ALWAYS look at recent highs and lows, I’m not talking support/ resistance… I’m looking at where that buying pressure/sell pressure reached max.

Do not place funds in any account that can be accessed on line = empty sooner or later. If you want to buy/sell online, create a separate account, that is funded by a bank loop, so you add €500 at the bank = then use for food/stuff day by day. If you get hacked = all they can get is that €500. Hopefully, read about 2 factor authentication and get your phone locked with a 6-8 digit PIN so no body can human engineer a sim card hack to grab the 2 factor code and change emails etc - read up about SIM hacking and protect your self.

My pixel 7 pro has been fraught with hardware issues. The physical SIM port no longer works and the screen will randomly go black and not turn back on. These are relatively common problems. Their warranty is not very good and you mainly just get a "refurbished" phone if you are eligible. Overall it's a solid phone for the price (heavily discounted) but I would never pay a premium. I've had the 3, 4, 6 and 7. The (3) was solid but all of the others had one problem or another - mainly hardware.

That's why ASTS is my play. If they can start offering service to anyone on the globe, it'll take off, especially if it's as easy as something like $15 / month to switch on. A cell phone makes so many things possible for the average person. Going hiking this month? $15 sat phone that also takes pictures and is your everyday. International travel now doesn't require a new SIM card and you can communicate without using the local government cell network. It could give people in NK and other areas like that access to open communication. Going fishing / diving / boating in general? Backup for the radio and navigation, also can communicate with Facebook for those big fish likes. People will forget they have it on and they'll like always having service. Verizon and AT&T can now just paint the globe red or blue and show their coverage areas like never before.

Is this the best security measures to take to buy btc? • Get an old unused phone and wipe it clean and reset with new passcode (this will be the ‘new’ phone only for crypto) • create new gmail account and new password • add a new phone number and SIM card for phone using new gmail • create an account on crypto trading platform to buy btc using new gmail and new password that’s same as gmail password • add funds using the one bank I am with (this will have my old gmail and password that i use personally) • download crypto trading platform app on new phone • buy btc on new phone _____________________ Questions: • I won’t use a mobile data on my new phone and will connect to my local wifi network only that I already own with my old gmail and password with isp provider - should I get my own mobile data specifically for the phone or can I use my home wifi? • the bank that I use is connected to my old gmail and password. Should I get a new bank and account specifically for crypto to add funds or nah? • I’m going to try to memorise my account email and password. Should I do it this way as well as write it down and keep it safe. I can’t keep it in a password manager on my pc? • I want to invest in stocks too. My options are; do all the above steps again for stocks specifically, use the same new gmail and password for stocks and crypto together, or simply just use my old gmail and password I use daily.

If you actually think you have any shot, you need to start by reviewing every single one of your trades. You actually have a winning system here. You just did it the opposite way. If you're not willing to look thru every single one of your trades, and figure out why it's the EXACT OPPOSITE of what you wanted, then you just don't have what it takes. After you review them, go into SIM. Otherwise, quit deluding yourself into think you actually tried. You didn't.

Below is a list of several SPACs who have syndicated their risk capital. The list includes the name of the SPAC, amount of risk capital syndicated, the product of syndication(private placements warrants or private placement shares), and gross proceeds from IPO. I'd estimate SPACs spend about $4 to $5 million in operating expenses for the 2 years it takes to make a deal. You can see, most SPACs that syndicate risk capital syndicate the entire risk capital need. You can also see that the amount of gross proceeds from the IPO does not correlate with how much risk capital is syndicated. In my opinion, if a SPAC decides to syndicate its risk capital, it syndicates the entire amount. Hedge funds are providing this capital. (note: this data comes from S-1 and S-1A's. Some of these SPACs have not IPO'd) M3-Brigade Acquisition V Corp: $4,250,000 in the aggregate private warrants $250 million at IPO Launch Two Acquisition Corp: $3,950,000 in the aggregate private warrants $200 million at IPO GigCapital7 Corp: $3,250,000.05 in aggregate private class b shares $250 million at IPO Newbury Street II Acquisition Corp: $4,045,000 aggregatte of private units $200 million at IPO HCM II Acquisition Corp: $3,500,000 in the aggregate warrants $200 million at IPO Voyager Acquisition Corp./Cayman Islands: $4,010,000 in the aggregate in the aggregate warrants $220 million at IPO Graf Global Corp: $2,000,000 warrants $200 million at IPO SIM Acquisition Corp.

They can't track you if you take out your SIM card

Foreign-Coconut3500

Its a SIM account. -60 ES overnight margin on most brokers = $23,800 which is like 1.4 million needed in cash in the account. He would have been liquidated for a loss right at the market close (for futures) which is 2PM PST, due to insufficient cash. Similar to how 0DTE's ITM get liquidated if you don't have enough cash to actually buy/short the shares for the contracts you're holding.

You must be delusional thinking that selling mobile plans are like selling tacos for street food. You can't just sell telco products in any country like bread. Telco is highly regulated and is linked to national security in many countries. There's a reason why they limit the number of telco licenses in every country.. furthermore, ASTS is a listed American company, do you think they're going to illegally sell SIM cards underground and recognize profits from the black market? ASTS is considered a foreign company and will find it very hard to get access to many places in Asia. I can't say got Europe and the west as they may be agreements, but when the government doesn't have control over the network and communications within their country, you can bet that they're not going to get license to sell and operate in those countries. Just think of illegal channels streaming on satellite dishes, but worse because it's a 2 way communications.... 6 billion? Even starlink can't do that and get 6 billion people. Also, telco and bandwidth auctions are a very big in Asia. It's a very big revenue for the governments and the rental of telco bandwidths in many countries are in the billions of dollars. What makes you think the governments will let ASTS take away business from the local telcos that pays billions in bandwidth rental every year? Is asts going to pay billions in rental of bandwidth per country? If the government needs control over the telco and block or censor the phone lines, is ASTS going to do that? If governments need to tap into lines and search for people or terrorists, is ASTS going to hand over control? Do you know how many hoops and considerations you need to have for each country? I work in telco and I'm just describing the surface issues here. There are plenty more other problems where it will be impossible for them to get licenses to sell telco lines, except in the west where the law and loopholes are more lenient.

You appear to be upset. Yes, Apex go after anyone and everyone who speaks out against them online. They will block your account and seize your funds if you post a negative review, they will ban you from Discord and Facebook if you complain about anything, but I'm not sure what the point is here? What does this have to do with moving people to live accounts? You said you're not sure what my point was, so I clarified it. Plenty of people discussing their PAs despite NDA, 0 people discussing their nonexistent live account. Therefore I believe Apex lies and everyone is on SIM, permanently. That's not to say they don't make money copying their top traders, or make money from the order flow data they gather. I note that you edited your post a few hours ago so I can't remember exactly what you said and what I replied to.

alittlerogue

My brother got SIM swap hacked, mostly likely to gain access for 2FA for his crypto. When I called T-Mobile to investigate, they said it was done in person in store. To do it in store you need identification and last 4 social. Most likely an inside job.

Intelligent_Ad1577

100% open a burner SSN -> sell the options -> pocket the premium -> if it goes south then pull the SIM card drop it in acid -> rinse and repeat

maevian

Dealers do the same to get anonymous SIM cards, but instead of going to the third world they just use local junkies. And instead of 50 dollars they pay in heroin. By the time cops come knocking down the door, junkie doesn’t even remember for who he signed up a SIM card.

si_de

Switch the SIM card and it's done.

Keepyourheadup879

Same reason company’s like Microsoft flourish. I was gifted a 3 month game pass. It was paid for already, as it was a gift given to me. Once I enter the info in, they demand a credit card ? For what do I need a credit card ? I’m setting up a service that was already paid for. Like buying a SIM card for a phone. Microsoft then proceeds to take your credit card, and automatically charge you every month once that 3 months is up. Corporate scum. They get their money and we the consumer dosent care. Profits go up, we keep paying

I'm very early on in my journey so I've been testing things out on a sim account. I've taken free or discounted week/2 week trials at various data providers to help me make sense of things that might work for me and suit my personality. I've reached out to providers and asked lots of questions to better understand how the data can be interpreted and used. I've found some good ones that work for me and I'm still keeping my eye out for more. For me, technical analysis in terms of drawing lines on charts doesn't and hasn't made much sense as it was too subjective so I opted for a more data and statically probability driven approach. Started out testing things on SIM first before moving onto 1 contract until I felt more comfortable taking more. Slow and steady. Even now I'm testing something else on a sim account. I'm not looking to get rich. Just create an additional stream of income and hopefully scale up in the future. If it helps, I currently use OptionRecom and Menthor Q. Good luck!

FireNurse2105

SIM TRADE!!! I've lost $100k. But I budgeted for the loss. If you didn't, then you need to trade in a sim until you are consistently profitable!!!

IranianLawyer

No, you have the ear the SIM card, and then you’re good to go. This is legal advice.

vsquad22

Thank you. I'm intending on staying out of the market on days or times with important events/reports/speeches. I'm using gamma levels from Menthor Q as well as delta (7) to define strikes. Will keep testing for a few months on SIM to ensure I can manage risk when things go wrong.

vsquad22

Beginner here. I am testing out on SIM selling daily and weekly 7 delta puts on SPX. How likely is this to work? What are the worst-case scenarios? Brutal critique welcomed.

Substantial_Lake5957

Ever heard of VoIP or Google Voice? You don’t need a phone or a SIM card nowadays.

Hefty-Interview4460

In Hong Kong, before, we could buy random sim cards off the streets and get a phone number with no verification. When China started worrying about our loyalty, they forced us to ID-register those prepaid sim cards. They said that as a bonus that should reduce the 10 calls a day we get from fake police officers and whatnot. Well now, I have to dance in front of the phone to prove my face is alive when I get a new SIM, but I STILL receive countless shit calls. Thank God I dont speak a word of Chinese, those 10 years as a lazy foreigner paid off lol They must be able to track those fuckers somehow, at the carrier level.

Z-Mobile

I bought one to try programming for it— (the watch) it’s got a few things right now it could do to drastically improve itself: 1. (More 3rd party problem) lately you can now put a SIM card into it and have it away from your phone, GREAT! Except disappointingly a lot of these apps insist on being mere extensions of the phone app. Youtube music: what the fuck do you mean check the phone app to select music?? What did you think I downloaded this app to do while biking? 2. You can browse safari and even type a keyboard on it now if you wanted. Just give us the easy access safari app already?? I hate having to do a workaround by asking Siri to look something up on the web, and THEN I get access to the elusive internet browsing feature 3. Obviously a lot of GenAI stuff could be implemented to make this better but also GenAI is still in an iffy stage so I can see why they’re delaying on that (my genAI api stuff I’ve made works great… around 60% of the time….)

Broker level sim such a TradeStation requires available inventory in their SIM

gnocchicotti

A new number costs like $10 with a prepaid SIM, or a Google Voice number. Sounds like more of a PITA than reddit for sure but not so inconvenient that a horny person would just quit... I guess there's also Bumble in the US but that's about it? And some apps are just dead in some areas.

SIM card wasn’t working all weekend. Swung a weekly TQQQ $50p 💀

JuanSolid

Yeah, let me just take out 1mil in debt and put the physical widgets in the bedroom I'm renting from the landlord, because we know it can infinitely hold these while I wait to flip. I just need to stay up all day and night with my baseball bat I drove nails through to protect it from thieves. Oh and there is 0 labor in protecting it, no loss of wages from skipping work to protect it, and 0 labor marketing and selling it. It's all magically done by AI that costs me nothing because I just coded it myself. Oh yeah, Bitcoin is never a target for theft, no one is breaking peoples fingers to get into their phones for that shit or stealing tablets from mobile phone stores for SIM swaps. I swear the amount of 'I know better than you regards' on WSB throwing out how simple shit is on paper while they literally do something else just proves why they fit right in. ONE OF US, ONE OF US!

EricCartman23

Tradestation has a SIM trading account where you can paper trade. It's a great way to learn and use these strategies. Also I highly recommend getting optionstrat

5degreenegativerake

They aren’t going to let you get months and months that behind. It is incredibly easy for them to kick your SIM off the network. It’s not like evicting someone out of an apartment.

GeneralZaroff1

Based on Kuo's reports I'm 90% certain they're gonna announce on-device AI and they'll probably also announce some kind of LLM. Also that recently shuttered their electric car project and said that they're moving the resources to AI development. Apple always tests their big projects with a small use first-- liquid metal in the iPhone SIM tray ejector, using iPhone LiDAR to train their VR projects, and in the last iOS update they added using LLM backends to their keyboard predictive text. I'd expect a beta product announced at WWDC and the stock will go up, but I doubt a true AI overhaul like Siri 2.0 will be arriving this year.

CryptoAdam2032

Orange 🍊 is! Removable battery, multiple micro sd slots so no cloud, bitcoin hardware wallet built in, multiple SIM card slots!

woome

eSims make it easier, not harder, to swap sim cards. Most phones can only take a single physical card, but can take multiple eSims or an eSim + a physical SIM. I'm currently overseas, and an eSim saves me from having to take my phone out of my case to swap sims for simple things like code verifications from back home.

sporks_and_forks

200+ mobile modems with SIM cards. access sold for $75/mo, cost $25/mo. ez.

DarthMauly

These days you need the 2 year carrier contract to get it at a price that used to be the SIM free cost.

Rude-Poem-6173

Did you not see the 🚀? Did you not read about the No Such Agency or the 👻 💣 💥 involvement? ‘Merika war machine. No peace in the Middle East. Your PUTS fuckin’ bombed like an Afghani using the same SIM card for too long in his burner phone. ⬆️ 🆙 ⬆️. Disavow now and join us, enough green dick for everyone to ride. 🫡

edmcgett

I use 2FA software keys for financial accounts. Either Symantec VIP or Google Authenticator depending on what is supported.   Authentication through email and SMS can be intercepted either with a compromised account or a cloned SIM card 

Rippper600

depends on your service provider. AT&T and T-Mobile I don't think they key their sims to only work on their network. Some do. But you should be able to pop the SIM card out and just put it in the other phone.

wisdomity

Pretty sure he’s SIM trading here. On ninjatrader (the platform he’s using in the video), you can set up a SIM account and trade freely on it, meaning you can set it up with 100k and trade it all the way to zero if you wanted to, I’ve definitely done that before for fun. Also, note on the top that he has multiple accounts on his dashboard, meaning he’s most likely trading through a prop firm. Basically this isn’t video real lol

Time_Appearance4162

Is SIM worth a buy today? not options just about 100 shares?
