Same!

Not going back to Coinbase and swan is a non-starter after being grandfathered in. 

I also like that sending sats to self-custody can only take a few hours using the “free 24-hour” option. 

 Free on-chain withdrawal is great. I can’t use their Lightning feature but I can buy sats and deposit to my node to open a channel. 

 Being outside of NY, I'm still able to do lightning transactions. It sucks that NY has restricted lightning. Very shortsighted and oppressive if you ask me.  

 Yep. The New York struggle is still real for us. I just kick those sats to boltz. 

 Cash App is super underrated. I’ve gotten a bunch of people into using Bitcoin simply because I was able to show them how easy it was with their Cash App. I just tell them how to get their address or Lightning invoice and then send them some. The rest of the process is self evident 

 Cash ap w bitkey is my goto. I'm homeless and don't have a place to secure a seed phrase. Additionally wo a permanent address local banks ans credit unions wont accept me. 

 It sucks that institutional discrimination against those without a permanent address still exists in banking. Like life isn't already hard enough. It's great that you're pushing through and making it work despite the obstacles.
