 Bitcoin Well is a good company. Once you’re set up, all you do is send X BTC to a specific address they supply at setup, and after one confirmation on the blockchain they send the fiat by email money transfer (Canada) to an email address of your choice, for subsequent deposit into the bank account of your choice. I’m not sure how Bitcoin Well navigates this in the US version of the service, since I can’t sign up as a US citizen. Of course there are tax implications, but we all understand this. And of course there’s the wait time for the bank to produce the actual funds. After the trucker convoy two friends of mine liquidated their chartered bank account to move it to a  local credit union and had to wait a month to get it all out. And it was only about $80k. The banks don’t have your money.
