And every other day is a "Holiday"

I’ve waited more than week wiring money to China. No clue where the money was and no assurances it would arrive.

Bitcoin is 1000x better than international wires just from a functionality standpoint.

Non standard intl banking made me so bullish on corn.

international wires fails and bank gaslighting is why I bitcoin

Visa/MC: 5-6 week final settlement

And that's after you type a piece of paper with wire instructions, print it, sign it by hand, scan and send to the bank for processing. Pathetic

But 10 minutes is tooooooo long

That's why we have Lightning (and Cashu)

Small blocks for easy verification, allowing plebs to trust everything, and other layers for speed (and extra privacy)

Kaspa:10 blocks per second.

Bitcoin is and always will be a superior store of value. But in a future and ever growing digital economy, don’t neglect the fastest, fair-launched, POW, with a hard cap, to serve in value settlement because of a form of a religion.

kaspa is retarded, sorry. you have been scammed

Can you explain why Kaspa is retarded? So far, every single time I engage with a Bitcoin maximalist, they can’t. They worship with subjectivity and have nothing objective to contribute, sadly. They just throw out uncontrolled emotional rants, like retarded. Kinda like Boomers when you talk to them about Bitcoin. The irony is thick.

its ok everyone gets scammed at least once

My point exactly. I don’t blame you for appealing to subjectivity and emotions. It’s natural when you’re insecure about a subject. Pride is difficult.

It’s not Oke in my opinion . Most people get their bitcoin by exchange their fiat money to the Bitcoin , cause I don’t see any single company willing to pay their employee in bitcoin . They still use the fiat .

Therefore get scammed on your crypto is not okay. man work hard for it

And you know it’ll go through.

Is that before or after the bank arbitrarily cancels your wire without notification?

International payments market is dominated by USDT.

Bitcoin is volume is a fraction of a fraction.

If you transfer BTC to another BTC account it roughly 1-2 hours depend on the traffic. .

If you transfer fiat to fiat using wise or anything , arrive in second .

BTC too could be like that in future ,

Lightning speed .

Not A bug.

It's a feature.

There are 3rd party services that are practically instantaneous.

Also: Niche application.

3 business days is by far not the worst case even for westerners but how about more exotic corridors? Russia to Venezuela or North Korea? Nigeria to Nepal?

So true 🤣
