I've been using Strike for over 2 years and I mostly love it. I deposit USD and then can send BTC directly to my self-custody wallets by simply paying to my own bitcoin addresses. I buy goods from vendors who accept Bitcoin with my Strike balance. I receive invoices and Zaps from Nostr tips via Strike.army LNurl directly into my Strike account. It's fast, versatile, and cheap to use.

Sadly their connection to my online ACH bank (ALLY) via Plaid is currently broken, and they haven't been able to fix it for almost a month. Major Bummer.

YMMV but I hope to keep using Strike. And btw, Jack Mallers, creator of Strike (jack@strike.me) is one of my favorite bitcoin maxis.
