In EU is still OK, but I supposed it will happen the same soon. The only way is to be paid directly in BTC.
@bitwage can you give more explanations to this ?

CEO of Bitwage here.
US employer/clients are still 100% supported.
Message in question means either that you have to send a quick ticket for some manual approvals we will get from our new banking partners or that you had an acc with an employer/client added prior Feb 2022, so it needs updating.
Post title is click baiting - there has been no rug pull.
We deal with bank accounts that our users use. Regulations change and in the process of these changes, there can be (temporary) changes or manual actions needed. Like the screen posted.
We are USA company that is fully regulated and on top of that we are FULLY non-custodial.
Worth repeating here again is that we did NOT drop US.

@DarthCoin, do you use Nostr as frequently as SN?

Whenever people need me... But nostr is more for memes and fun. Not for serious discussions.

Sad but true. I do hope Nostr long form thoughtful content becomes more of a thing. I'm doing my part.

Ok my opinion, Nostr still needs its killer app on terms of usability and functionality because all the current client implementations are somehow boring...

They are boring because they are copying old formats. It is important though which is why I keep using it.

Nostr risks to lose the interest of its audience if it doesn't use the amazing opportunity it now has to catch the tip of the wave before Elon implements the big changes he's talking about for a year...
