Why does almost every Bitcoin onramp require you to use Plaid? Call me skeptical but how could giving a third party your bank account user name and password (to ALL of your accounts rather than an account specific routing number) not go wrong?

River will allow ACH...
But yeah you are right
I decided to open up another bank account at a different bank, direct deposit a specific amount out of each paycheck, did bite the bullet with Plaid, and have those funds to River. I have yet to set up reoccurring payments to make the entire process completely automated.
From there I can adjust allocated funds up or down if needed. The goal is to slip into the Bitcoin financial system as seamlessly as possible with the possibility of early adoption benefits.
