Story time!

So I use ShakePay as my Bitcoin purchase platform. Recently, they have been converted into an actual bank as I now direct deposit my fiat cheques there. It's quick and although it's KYC I can use a mixer to help with that. It works for now.

The other day my pay came through and this pay we got a nice bonus (what wasn't taxed by our faggot government) so I was looking forward to it.

First thing I notice is my account "has been limited."

I've been Canadian long enough to know what this means. I have done literally nothing wrong but government regulations tell this former Bitcoin, now bank app to flag any mildly different behavior as suspect and I figure the larger pay this time caused me to be flagged.

Naturally, I went to their help chatbot/personbot and without mincing words told them to fix it as I had only committed the crime of not leaving this damned country before 2020.

It was fixed quickly, but it reminded me that I need be vigilant and perhaps need to find a backup platform where I might buy my Bitcoin should this one be taken down or should I choose to eliminate it as an option with a repeat of this offense.

All methods of buying Bitcoin gave their place, but we need to be ready to give up options in favor of those with fewer restrictions and/or no KYC.
