 The Bitkey can’t be shipped to New York? Seriously?

 Your entire state is banned from Bitcoin, ser. 
 Can’t even let New Yorkers have access to self-custodial wallets. No, you must stay on your exchange where we can spy on you.

Thank goodness I have other options. 
 Build a Seedsigner! Love those things. 
 Is it because NY hates bitcoin?!? 
 It’s because they only care about protecting banks, while they call it “protecting consumers.”

Look up the long history of the BitLicense, written by an unelected bureaucrat named Ben Lawsky.

After screwing over the entire state population, he got hired at Ripple. Now he works at NYDIG.
