Hadn't even thought about this but yep, auto-DCAing incoming bank payments via an invoice is such a cool way to stack these money legos.

Recently shipped a small "Watched Accounts" for @splits Teams. Not everything runs in Teams (yet), so it's been really helpful to have external wallet monitoring when running operations for /basepaint 's Raincards and BP Rewards balance.
