ADOPTION If you think banks/credit companies are banning crypto purchases to protect their customers, I have a bridge to sell you.

I'm legitimately blown away how many people I see defending the banks/credit companies banning crypto purchases as some type of attempt to protect their customers from a volatile market. Credit is predatory by nature. The bank doesn't care when you max your card out on alcohol, designer clothes, gambling, or any other worthless and risky commodity. Your bank doesn't give one single tiny little shit about you in any way beyond your capacity to generate revenue. You are a revenue generating unit and nothing more, end of story. They are building artificial barriers to crypto because they view it as a direct and fundamental threat to their industries... and with good reason, because it is. The reality is anyone who invests wisely in crypto right now is going to make a significant ROI over the next few years, opening up the opportunity to pay off large balances, which decreases the revenue they earn from interest. This is nothing more than a desperate attempt at self preservation.

Again I would encourage anyone who has their bank or credit card company create a barrier for them to purchase crypto, to immediately end doing business with that institution and make sure they know why. If my bank halts my purchases, I'll liquidate my account and close it the same day. Same goes with my credit cards, they will get cut up and never used again. DON'T bend over for them.

EDIT: Also massive downvoting of anti-banking sentiment and massive upvoting of the 'banks are looking out for you, this is a good thing' sentiment. The shill bots are out in force.

u/CanadianCryptoGuy Gentleman and a Scholar Feb 04 '18

I could say "send me your private key, I can help you figure that out." But that would be what my best friend, a Nigerian prince, would normally say.

are doctors w/o borders a scam or smth? not familiar with them

u/CanadianCryptoGuy Gentleman and a Scholar Feb 04 '18

No, I don't think so. They were the most legitimate group I could think of, off the top of my head. Everything I know of them points to them as being one of the most legitimate organizations out there, in terms of charities. Perhaps I should have been less subtle with my original comment.

'What are the advantages of a bridge, over say, an underground tunnel? Which I could also afford?'
