I had a similar experience, but with Chase. It was wild. We had someone or a team, replicating ACH payments that looked like our usual payments, all taken from a payroll check, that was probably cashed at a western union, it was awful. They weren't going to give the full amount back (it was an embarrassingly large amount), but we filed a police report and showed it to chase, after a few days they said, "are you a veteran?" No. "Are you a senior citizen" no. "Did you have covid in the last 12 months?" Yes, because everyone had it at the time. magic words. The next day they restored all of the fraudulent funds. It was really crazy that it happened, and also really crazy how they were able to clack a few keys and we had the funds restored, because we had Covid within the last 12 months.

Cold plunges- the sending of BTC to a hardware wallet without confirming the outbound address.

Does anyone know of a website that compiles all of the BTC spot prices? Noticing that Google, coinbase, cash app, binance etc are all different.

Is BTC bought at. $69,420 worth more than its face value?

Jim Cramer coming out against MSTR stock is the most bullish signal I've ever seen in the last few years. Let's gooooooo.

I've experienced similar. It's so invasive. They are an extension of the state.

After a convo today, I fully realized that bitcoiners and "crypto" ppl are not even close to living on the same planet.

I was an early user of square when I started my first business about 15 years ago, as a food vendor in urban space markets in NYC. When square went public I had the opportunity to buy pre ipo shares at, I believe $9. I passed bc our business was growing and square tools no longer met our needs. The market place looked cluttered and I couldn't see how this company was going to grow. What I missed though, was how the company is laser focused on building out an ecosystem for people like me. They are constantly creating products that help individual operators and retail customers have a better experience and environment. And they do this in a unique way in the market place. Currently the POS landscape is cluttered with competitors. But no one is looking seriously at BTC and the problems it can solve for smb operators like me. I can only imagine the battles that @jack has had with cc companies over the years, but based on my own battles, I know this is part of what's fueling his need to build out more BTC infrastructure for the world. This is why I'm bullish SQ (block), and why I'm bullish BTC. I missed that pre IPO of sq all those years ago, but I will not miss it this time. Wall Street truly does not understand this company, which presents a buying opportunity for those of us that do understand what @jack is doing. Thank you for your work over these years, and being an inspiration to us all every day.
