Fuck swan? They didn't do this to you your own state did dipstick.

The Daniel ⚡️ 2y ago

The Prime Trust thing was really the dealbreaker for me. Also, the team is sketchy AF.

Tetsu Tamasi 2y ago

A sponsor of yours?

Derek Ross 2y ago

it's not really Swan's fault. more like fuck NYS.

The Daniel ⚡️ 2y ago

No, but they used a shady custodian.

Derek Ross 2y ago

Right... so did many other companies. Swan and Strike moved.

Peter 2y ago

Point me to a custodian that isn’t shady. This is a cowboy industry and will be for a very long time

gilligan 2y ago

How is that on them?

Bauzen 2y ago

Not their fault tho

The Daniel ⚡️ 2y ago

The NY issue wasn’t, but there are other reasons related to their leadership team and custodian choices that made me lose confidence in them.

Bauzen 2y ago

Primetrust?

Fiat Shenanigans 🤡🌎 2y ago

Yeah fuck them! I like to use dirty quick poorly priced fiat gateways that only want an email and phone # and no photo ID bullshit and send my purchase immediately to whatever fucking wallet I say. Back in the day I used to buy on coinbase. Shit was $17 the first time I bought it. Not no more. Fuck CashApp too. Send a little bit of sats to an address they don't approve of and they''ll straight up ban your shit the same day. Fuck all those KYC fuckers.

Haven’t been able to buy in Texas - cash app has been great despite the fees…can at least most to cold storage immediately

The Daniel ⚡️ 2y ago

Texas? Isn’t that the most bitcoin-friendly state?

Joe Santamaria, MD 2y ago

Definitely is - had something to do with prime trusts license originally I believe.

I received something similar from PayPal UK today.

Could this be a coordinated attack to prevent plebs from using the lifeboats before the upcoming pump?

Disclaimer: I would never stack sats with PayPal, but received the email anyway.

The Daniel ⚡️ 2y ago

Do they not allow withdrawals to self custody?

thesimplekid 2y ago

I didn't know they ever allowed in NY

The Daniel ⚡️ 2y ago

It was in 2021.

Kman 2y ago

I have a bad feeling of what’s to come for Swan.
