It’s hilarious we’ve normalized putting a “case” on cellphones. Do you bubble wrap your car too?

Web monetization.  Working on gfam.live to help creators earn from their content.

Why do other onramp providers need ID, SSN, etc? Skill issue or Coinbase has something they don’t?

This but also stoplights. I wonder how much GDP has been lost to people waiting at an intersection that no one is passing through. Pathetic design choice that has costed humanity immeasurable amounts of time

The Blues won the cup 6 years ago today and the auto repair shop lobby is playing Gloria. Gets me every time 🥲

Low approval rates yes, but why doesn’t every onramp do the same? For riskier transactions then send them to KYC. Most users will be under 500

I lived in Florida. We put everything except for bubble wrap on cars

AI makes college more valuable not less btw

How does Coinbase offer no KYC and 0% fees for USDC onramps? Is their fraud detection just that good?

I’ve dropped my iphone more times than I can count and its perfectly fine. The phone case industry has us all fooled

being optimistic.
putting the team over the individual.
