I’ll never use NEOXA wallet anymore

First when I recovered the wallet from the passphrase it displayed me a zero balance, I did a quick google search and fixed this by leaving password field empty, but after that I got “Transaction too large” message while trying to send some NEOXA amount to an exchange:

Trading on Binance in Russian style

It is important to know that on Binance the buyer is always responsible for fees, seller has to receive full amount.

I created a P2P order to sell 13.05 USDT and buy 250 TRY (so I was the seller), but the buyer sent me only 237.5 TRY explaining that the bank takes 5% fee. I did not believe it and we discussed it in Russian style.

After that I initiated an appeal and Appeals team has informed the buyer to pay the remaining amount, and was given him 3 hours time frame.

Handling messages from Binance Websocket streams

User Data Stream

To subscribe I query listen key:

POST /api/v3/userDataStream

connect to websocket wss://stream.binance.com:9443/stream and send the listen key with the following message :

{
    "id": 1,
    "method": "SUBSCRIBE",
    "params": [
        "<my listen key>"
    ]
}

When Binance accepts the subscription it sends:

{
    "id": 1,
    "result": null
}

Binance looses its orders

When I query KAVAUSDT order #561657676 with /api/v3/order?symbol=KAVAUSDT&orderId=561657676&timestamp={{timestamp}}&signature={{signature}} that normally should return

{
    "symbol": "KAVAUSDT",
    "orderId": 561657676,
    "orderListId": -1,
    "clientOrderId": "ce86e0a9-85a8-4d9b-99b1-b08e227e2464",
    "price": "4.80700000",

    "updateTime": 1632184233620,
    "isWorking": true,
    "origQuoteOrderQty": "0.00000000"
}

}
