It sometimes is hard to forget that "legitimate" banks are jerking people around with not doing transfers or refusing to allow a transfer.
I'm migrating to Robosats.
My perfectly good visa prepaid card not being good to my "legitimate" bank as a way to put money in my account, a pittance, is a bridge too far for me today. Lost my access to my customary kraken gig and Bitstamp came through ok but it's not paranoid to talk about banks jerking you around.
It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone they are giving ethereum a pass when you see the rugpulling done daily by banks.
Very true. I'm still unable to withdraw my bitcoin from Swan. I started the transaction on Tuesday, May 30. Here's the response I received later that day when the withdrawal did not happen:
We are eagerly anticipating the availability of selling, purchasing, and withdrawals on our platform. Currently, we are awaiting updates from our team regarding the progress of the migration. Once the migration is successfully completed, we will promptly notify you.
We are hoping for later today, and are standing by. If we don't hear from our team working on migration, the ETA is looking like later this week.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
I'm still waiting. No further communication.

P2P should be the default and custodial should be optional. The thing about money supply and how it puts the bank in opposition to its customers should be the end of the discussion but here we are.

We're entering a phase where money transfers need to fit a certain pattern that looks normal to the bankers. Normal people have tutors and babysitters and get jobs done on their house/apartment so think in those terms when you do your no-KYC trades.
