Its a registered company they must comply with law. 🤷‍♂️

💯 I feel for him. He is totally not in a position to subvert tax law. I am a foolish idealist. Bitcoiners aren’t yet in a position to live as govt/tax-free anons in a cozy circular economy. It’s just weird to see a bitcoiner like jack (or saylor) bend the knee to govt while proclaiming bitcoin’s freedom-enabling capabilities. But, if they didn’t they’d be gone in a heartbeat, so they have to. I would do the same if I were them.

There’s only two things in life that are certain, death and taxes. Paying taxes means you’re profitable. Being profitable IS a good thing. The tax man is someone you don’t want to fuck with. Participation in politics is how you change the tax man. Life is the following- Be profitable, pay taxes, stay healthy, try not to die.

I do sell bitcoin to pay my bills. I won’t when we launch Lending

Bruh, I’m gonna over-leverage myself & you’re gonna take all my sats 😭

Can we get a 12m 0% interest CC first?

Strike gonna be the first real bitcoin bank- gonna beat Baylor to it. Make Hal’s comments a reality!

if Coinbase did one thing well, it was their Bitcoin lending. then they shut it down. ledn is good but not as liquid. if strike adds lending it will be the only custodial platform I'll use.

i agree and am on it

Can’t wait :)

When!?

I pay my bills in Bitcoin too but it's a cumbersome pain in the ass process. Can I get into the Strike beta somehow? Also, feature request: auto spend-and-replace. When you pay a bill for $X, you automatically buy $X worth of BTC. 💪💪

He mentioned on the money podcast from last week that they are waiting on Canadian regulations but hope to be approved soon.

working on it

Bullish!!!

Sent you this (DM) on X My 10-year-old recently gave a "Speak Up" in class about Bitcoin, which got me thinking about how parents can introduce their kids to Bitcoin wallets. This next wave of users will likely be children, not parents, so we need a solution that simplifies this for families. Right now, the only practical way I’ve found is setting up additional Strike accounts with a workaround like providing a fake DoB. It’s not ideal. Would you consider enabling up to 5 subaccounts for families? Something similar to how we can create and manage Gmail accounts or Android devices for kids. This would make it easier for parents to onboard their children responsibly. The future is about preparing the next generation, not just onboarding ours. 🙏

What a time to be alive.
