#[0]​ lots to love about the Strike update! Especially the global sending 🌎🌍🌏

A question - the wallet UX presents cash and bitcoin as peers, but bitcoin is lacking the core functionality of a wallet and missing the features (send + deposit as examples) of what cash has. Why is this? ❓

Offering the currencies as peers makes for such a strong product, but it feels like it’s missing the last step to bring them into a true 1:1 relationship. 💚

#[3]​ functions as a hot wallet, but is not not a product for long term hodling. The recommendation is to buy sats and move them to cold

storage if you are using strike to buy and hold BTC.

My guess is some regulatory reason for now allowing bitcoin deposits? Something to do with tracking cost basis maybe? For tax purposes

That said, to your point, cash does not have this issue

💯💯💯

not intentional. was a mistake with the rollout on our side, US users don’t have it yet

gonna go out along with removing limits for everyone either this week or early next week

sorry about that. but you’re right, couldn’t agree more!

Stoked to check it out!! 🤘

🤘

I’d love it if when I clicked on the strike symbol I could see the value of the bitcoin I hodl on strike in USD/local currency without having to click through and then click again. I suspect I’m not alone. Just a thought!

Great update btw! Today, my family discussed over pizza about how good the update you provided is for people who need to send remittances. It’s fantastic you onboarded a bunch of new countries.

So my thing is a small quibble.

Keep up the good work! Keep killing Western Union and helping out those who need it the most.

nah your feedback is important. seems the navigation is more fancy than helpful, which is good feedback

we should change it 👍

I honestly think something simple like the bottom right would be what I’d want. (Ignore the white box. Just don’t want to disclose how much bitcoin I have sitting on strike right now. Haha)

Love the progress on Strike. Will Pakistan be added?
