 Ugh. Tuttle Twins new bitcoin episode... sponsored by Swan. 🤮 
 What's wrong with Swan?  
 Have you heard of Prime Trust? 
Their CEO, Cory, is a douchebag that I have heard from two friends that separately hold the opinion based on personal interactions. 
Did you hear they were suing their former employees over a botched mining deal? They're a lot of hype but don't even hold their own keys. Lots of talk with little walk. Were supposed to be going public in a year or so and then magically laid off a bunch of people. Smells like bad news to me.

It's probably fine if you take self-custody but I'd rather use Coinbase than Swan. And Coinbase is horrible. 
 I see. Oh yeah no Coinbase over here. I understand your point of view. I actually stopped my direct deposits to Swan a while ago, and I'm seriously thinking about using Strike instead and manage there. They're coming with a bill pay feature directly into the app...  
 I enjoy Strike and River 
 like a timeshare condo sales conference at an airport motel. 
 oddly specific. and very fitting. 
 everything is a B rated 80s comedy in my mind.
