    They work extremely well within the obvious KYC and AML parameters. I suspected they would not pay any fine, especially when they are so cooperative with the powers that be. Very cooperative!!

    Holy crap, Trump has finally managed to crash both Wall Street and Bitcoin, as everyone predicted. I lost quite a bit of money, but luckily I went short on some stocks just in time, so I could limit the damage.

    I think Tesla might be in big trouble. And I haven't got a clue why everyone was so negative on Nvidia, the numbers were great! MongoDB also got hammered for no good reason. Like I said, Wall Street barely makes any sense, and is clearly rigged.

    I totally agree with this statement. This crypto adoption stuff by governments around the world is very dangerous in my view.

    Now, why would they want to do this? Like I said, ~ Removed Off Topic Remarks ~, it just doesn't make sense to lift sanctions, unless you want to use this service to commit fraud yourself. :gack:
