Sad bitcoin in Europe reality check - it’s getting baaaad..

I sent my friend his first bitcoin to Revolut ($30)

He had to verify the wallet it came from. Including my name, wallet etc. since I used a wallet which isn’t kyced (lol) they refused the Bitcoin - he was forced to send it back. Read that again. SEND IT BACK TO THE WALLET.

He couldn’t do anything with it. Fucked up.

But now he’s holding his own keys - he immediately understood why we bitcoin 😂 Barbara Streisand effect.

And Revolut is one of those banks that pretends to be "crypto-friendly", so imagine the others.

You should NEVER, EVER, send "on ramp" bitcoin to a custodial service. "Yes, but for small amounts the setup is a mess!". Soon it will become as easy as sending to a Bitcoin address.
