Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"

I really think that bitcoin atms and Circle are like comparing apples and oranges.. .sure they are both fruit, but they are different. It is likely that Circle created a model that was not sufficiently profitable, which may make it a bit difficult for some service to come into their space and to take over the services that Circle was providing at the approximate rate that they were providing. I don't give a single shit about Circle, it's a startup like any startup, by time, we will have 100x Circle-like Startups Maybe on a personal level, Circle may not matter too much, but the fact of the matter was that there were a lot of folks who were using Circle, and their surprise announcement was a bit of a shock for a lot of folks.. and will likely have several repercussions in the coming months (at least for some folks to seek out other reasonable means to buy and sell coins), and maybe even some folks will get out of bitcoin out of frustration. Sure, we may consider some of the Circle folks (seeking user-friendliness) as weak hands, but in the end, I find the abruptness of Circle's change and their announcement to be a bit disingenuous and a spitting in the face of a large number of smaller potato bitcoin users... so some of these folks may get confused by this and frustrated with bitcoin because of the seemingly disingenuous actions of Circle.

1) Self-Custody is a right. There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted." 2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized. 3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

Simply love the largely bullish article (arguing that bitcoin represents a kind of paradigm changing technology) in a quasi-mainstream circulation (if Huffington Post can be characterized as such?). I am wondering if at any point in time the features are going to be added for USA users? or maybe USA is going to be left in the dust because of litigation and/or regulatory concerns?

Just a couple posts up Spark is talked about as being a bull article...

I totally understand the shock that happened and in the making as well, but believe me it's a matter of time and we will see other startups popping up and making circle a thing from the deep past. This is so normal, but as I always say, for everything, there is an end.Simply love the largely bullish article (arguing that bitcoin represents a kind of paradigm changing technology) in a quasi-mainstream circulation (if Huffington Post can be characterized as such?). I am wondering if at any point in time the features are going to be added for USA users? or maybe USA is going to be left in the dust because of litigation and/or regulatory concerns? 1. This is what Trace Mayer have been saying for decades and I do believe him a lot, he is an oracle. 2. I doubt they will leave USA, it's a gigantic market with good profits to be made from. It will be awesome. Thanks for adding the bullish news my bullish friend.
