Anyone paying 65mm for an apartment will not be in areas where there is violent crime. this isn’t Gotham.

in the UK “private” means not owned by the government. It has nothing to do with shares being tradeable.

i agree.

it looks like heads are rolling. Setting a precedence that banks can't just debank you for your politics.

mr scarecrow, (strawman) This thread isn’t about all those scenarios - which are interesting and can be legitimate. It’s about people who are at risk of being debanked because of their abhorable behavior of intentionally spreading false information and hate. NB: dr Krueger identified this...

The purpose of the thread was that people should put their money in bitcoin because they might get debanked. We've all agreed that high profile racists and people who spread lies about COVID fit into this category. Terrorists and criminals are supposed to be debanked by the bank charters. So...

what did i try? I agreed with the OP and with you. A polarizing figure who spreads lies about COVID or who is a racist should use bitcoin (but not crypto in general) because they will likely be debanked. I don't know Blackrocks motivation for providing crypto services.

to the point of the thread, maybe farage should use bitcoin (not eth) for his personal banking because he is such a polarizing public figure. It’s should be agreed: bitcoin is for terrorists, criminals, and alt right racists.

nigel farage is a high profile person who attracts a lot of attention. He’s polarizing like say a transvestite drinking a bud light… association with him can cause reputational risk. As a conservative I think you would support a firm not wanting to business with him like a bakery not wanting to...

Why will you be voting democrat?

Your example is irrelevant to the discussion. Start another for this example. His argument is that a bank can end your account because of your political stance. This has not been proven to be true. You keep building strawmen arguments.

Fine: only bitcoin. It would be COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE for the people mentioned by the OP to put their money in eth or usdt. We agree on this. Therefore if it’s inappropriate for them to put their money in eth, then it’s inappropriate for them to put their money in btc as the properties that...

none of your extreme nonsensical hypothetical “examples” are relevant to this conversation.

The lack of an explanation is not acceptable; but my guess is the owners got an explanation when they called the bank. The article has an agenda to push (Covid deniers are being discriminated.) bitcoin and crypto are interchangeable for the purposes of this conversation just like euros and usd...

there’s no evidence a bank has closed someone’s account for their opinions. Banks have decided not to do business with certain industries (porn) and are not allowed to do business with others (marijuana). If you wanted to make an argument for crypto, this example is a poor one. The rest of...

complex orders go to a special book that market makers interact with. You aren’t guaranteed a fill even if the ask of the individual legs is lower than your bid on the complex order. close all at once. If you can’t then close delta neutral legs with shorts first.

of course the reason matters. These guys likely commited some kind of legal violation of the banking sector. There’s no evidence that their opinions were the reason their accounts were suspended. You are just advocating that people who are skirting the law should use bitcoin to avoid being...

chase closed these guys accounts but it’s only speculation as to why.

story doesn’t apply to this thread.

There’s a quote that goes something like this: you can learn anything on the internet if you are willing to be flamed.
