This is probably one of the shortest wallet lifecycles I've ever seen. Released in September, shutting down in December. Respect to MoneyGram for shipping fast and validating their intuition quickly. It also proves @crossmint’s value: their wallet infra is so cheap and fast to

All passive income can be withdrawn for personal use. Personally, @Decaf_so has been a great off-ramp, with almost zero fees compared to the 10% I used to pay via P2P, bridges, and other methods 😪 And of course, I make sure to pay the corresponding taxes in my country :))

I grew up in Iran chanting death to Israel in school assembly every week. Anti-semitism is a pernicious disease and an ancient hatred that must be fought, especially when it is veiled as it is these days by the one sided and unfair attacks on the Israeli people.
