The Chat I Almost Deleted Too Soon

I used to clear old P2P chats the moment an order closed, thinking there was nothing left to keep once the crypto had already changed hands. That habit almost cost me weeks later, when a buyer disputed a trade claiming we'd agreed on different terms. I hadn't kept my own copy, and I was relying on Binance's order history to still have the full thread — which it did, since the chat stays tied to the order, but I'd spent a stressful hour assuming I'd lost my proof.

I check counterparty history more carefully now too. That buyer's completion rate was fine, but the account was only a few weeks old, which wouldn't have stopped me from trading, just would've made me slower and more deliberate about confirming payment before release.

What actually resolved things was simple: everything relevant lived inside Binance, chat, order details, payment confirmation, so support could review it directly instead of taking either side's word for it. I opened the dispute while the order was still active, not after.

I still don't delete anything now, even when a trade feels completely uneventful.
