@NVK will never recover from this without brining in outside consultation to verify coldcard firmware and put out updates that have been peer reviewed by multiple sources.
And even with that, @Coinkite may be done.

Agree with you on most points. I first heard about it on rabbit hole recap and they really exaggerated it.

But I think the language around wallets is a bit vague and seems to leave room for them to go after, say, sparrow wallet transactions down the road. But yes, it does seem like the intent is to tax exchanges and other services like Strike, River, Swan.

Short term, I’m sure they are primarily focused on big players like Coinbase.

JB Pritzker also signed an Illinois law to tax every bitcoin transaction starting in 2027.

He lost his, which is the only reason he has the “courage” to be honest now

I switched my DCA from Strike to River, mainly because I grew tired of Mallers’ immature attitudes on several topics. Couldn’t support Strike anymore.

Plus, Strike hides their fees inside the price spread while claiming “no fees”.

XXI always looked like a bad idea to me.

Designers leaving adobe for figma and other platforms, that’s the main reason. Plus AI collapsing the design industry in general.
