So the thought is that because it uses LN, it’s good for the network? I’m not trying to accuse or anything, just wondering how it’s helpful to bitcoin specifically. I know it helps people 🙌

I guess so, yeah? It’s a nice clean simple interface to ease people into bitcoin. I think their goal is to be like Venmo, but without the social media bs and on ln rails. Jack definitely has eyes far beyond the bitcoin community.
I have an account, but I’ve only ever used it minimally for spot buys or short-term hourly DCAs… and I haven’t used it for at least a year, so I’ve got no idea what it’s currently like.
Does it ease people into bitcoin if they don’t know what’s happening on the back end? Or are we taking about media exposure?
Bitcoin is visible on the front end, too. You’re aware it’s there, you just don’t need to actively do anything on-chain if you don’t want to.
If anything, Strike is far more bitcoin-forward than CashApp is (so far).
Interesting 🧐 do you have screenshots of the app UI? I suppose I could Google too
Yeah, lemme reinstall it. 😜
Oh dude, don’t worry about it in that case. Not important
Too bad! Here’s a tour:
