 My Square account got locked for some reason (probably having to do with my using CalyxOS) but I need to sell some bitcoin. I tried out Strike for the first time in a couple years, and wow it is slick

 Wish it were open source.

 Didn't realize it wasn't 100% FOSS. Do you know what components are closed?

 I can't find anything on Strike being open source, so I assume their app is proprietary.

 Oh, Strike, I thought you meant Calyx. Which TIL is also not open source

 Same happened to me when I issued my co-founder a payment request from company account. Square customer help line had no idea what happened, "escalated" it...and I never heard back. 

Had funds locked in square checking, disputed the deposit with the bank I made deposit from and got the funds back. 

It's dangerous out there on a fiat standard!
