 So the Federal Reserve says they have built "substantial goodwill" for their FEDNOW product in the same year that the most popular song in the US was an overnight sensation singing "Your dollar ain't shit." 🤣 @BitcoinMagazine 
 Have to remember that Humans are not the customers for FedNow. Its benefits are for institutions which dont have feelings of good will. 
 Speaking of wills, mine won’t have fednow bucks in it.

**Companies:**

* Adyen
* ACI Worldwide Corp.
* Alacriti
* Aptys Solutions
* ECS Fin Inc.
* Finastra
* Finzly
* FIS
* Fiserv Solutions, LLC
* FPS GOLD
* Jack Henry
* JPMorgan Chase
* Juniper Payments, a PSCU Company
* Open Payment Network
* Pidgin, Inc.

 @AintGottaDollar Have you seen this? 
 That account has not been confirmed to be authentic and should not be trusted until verified. 
 When I think of the Federal Reserve Bank I get all warm and fuzzy inside. 
 Love it!
