Time and again VCs and consultants told us we needed to hire faster, grow more quickly, and increase headcount. Through all of the pressure to do that

argued that more headcount was unlikely to increase productivity and output.

Doing what we can to get ERC20's out. $100 gas per withdrawal. Blockchain pretty slow.
But we'll keep processing them! May need to gate the free withdrawals for it though.

I've been minting/redeeming USDT on an institutional scale for over 3 years with multiple desks! While admittedly I've done far more mints than redemptions, below you'll find all USDT redeemed in my current role. Note the process has always been smooth.
