Correct. I don't know what game is Tesla playing, but all this sounds against the logic of their previous investment: selling some and telling they sold, now no longer accepting Bitcoin ... it already sounds like they've sold more than they've announced and now they're dragging the price down to buy back.

On the other hand, I think that the last correction is more related to what happens on stock market than to this not-that-important announcement (since, let's face it, how many would give up Bitcoin for a car?)

Wondering if anyone else has gone at least 3+ weeks and eventually got approved? 

Mine has been taking forever.

I thought i could maybe try a different login and redo the verification, but once you get to the verification part, it says taxid already in use (not sure if just "disabling" the old stuck one would work)?

Or perhaps it just takes eons?
Whats the longest someone had to wait in the usa?

Any thoughts

Thanks in advance

That could be the case but maybe there are some other things that they want to pursue that they need the funds to pay signature campaign for so they have to cut it off completely to concentrate on that project. I hope that they will come back someday though.

What we are looking for is information regarding the locations of Bitcoin ATMs and the usage requirements/procedures.

I looked up HyperPay, which seemed good, but then there were a ton of bad reviews for it.

Tighter monetary policy and rising interest rates will restrain domestic growth and reduce capital flows to emerging economies. The capital flows that were searching for yields in emerging economies when interest rates in high-income countries were close to zero will likely decline, moderating growth in countries with large external funding needs. In such an environment, a cyclical downturn is more likely than further acceleration or even stabilization of growth at current levels.
That slowdown may already be happening. The Purchasing Managers’ Index, which combines various indicators in the manufacturing sector (new orders, inventory levels, production, deliveries, employment), will fall in the region.

Especially if you're from the US, afaik in general KYC is pretty much mandatory. It's just that asking for the KYC at the point of withdrawal is definitely not the best way of doing it (in an ethical perspective).

Inactive merit sources should be replaced with a new one, IMO.

I don't know what is the process of sending smerit per merit sources but it seems sending 20+ smerit in one post isn't looking good, it might reasonable if that 4-5 smerit in one post, my question is, are they tired of distributing on it?

WOW! Thank you very much. The funny thing is that I wasn't expecting to get any single merit when I created the thread, as I was asking a question and just wanted to exchange opinions, but look at how it's turned out.

Your first point about quality can be subjective or objective, so source members are going to come to very differing conclusions about those kinds of matters, and I doubt that theymos would have any problems with that and the standard does seem to be more concerned with either potential abuse or even being inactive.. but lots of latitude seems to be allowed in determining posts/members to merit. .. .so in other words, findingnemo, if theymos wants to consider your merit distribution philosophy, he may well either add you (or your type of a member) as a source or increase your smerits if you already are a source, to the extent that theymos even wants to do any incremental changes to what is already happening.

I do agree with you that there does seem to be a number of merit sources who have decently (or would it be relatively) small source allocations, and of course, relative to a non merit source member, anything might seem like a lot, but relative to some other members, it may seem like a little.. 100 is actually not a bad quantity.. and even 50 or 60, which would still be 2 source merits per day.. so sure, it might be difficult to know or to hypothesize if tweaking a few members might be helpful or if theymos might be considering that if he does it, then he is going to do something BIGGER.. (so speculating again, regarding what theymos might be thinking in terms of tweaking, big changes or even total overhall - which would also be potentially scarie, until it were to actually happen and we know what we would be dealing with - under such a total overhall scenario, were it to occur).
