HSBC Barclays Lloyds NatWest all using Quant tech. Bank of Japan collaboration. SWIFT integration. Down 80% from ATH while connecting the entire financial system to blockchain. bittensor:native - NVIDIA dropped $420M. Jensen Huang endorsed it publicly. Grayscale ETF filed. $43M Q1 revenue. The CEO of the most valuable company on Earth validated your bags. And you’re scared of a red week? solana:rndrizKT3MK1iimdxRdWabcF7Zg7AR5T4nud4EkHBof - Apple featured them at WWDC. NVIDIA partnership. 45K+ GPU nodes. Powering the infrastructure AI needs to run.

  @MmisterNobody Yes when I was going through an awful time I lost all my savings after listening to a bunch of fools about crypto. Pretty much everything I owned did well for a few weeks and all kinds of rich clowns be talking about HODL this HODL that like they're all some sort of secret alliance with the elites. I literally would have a bunch of different types of currencies so I had a variety. I could keep someone in for a good while and the moment I sold my bit of a specific coin, it would get a massive boost lol. One of them boost by like 10x within hours after me taking it out like they do it on purpose or something. The rest that I kept in just went down pretty much every day and some got rug pulled out of nowhere lmao. In the end I ended up that ****** up I made a stupid decision to take a loan out for only £10 grand where I got charged nearly £4-5 grand in interest from NatWest in just under a year. I ended up losing everything and I was guided to go insolvent lol. Still ****** now from it all and many people have the cheek to steal things from me. They want me dead, quietly suffering or locked up. They've told too many lies on my name because they couldn't take me out. Some of them have made a whole life out me these last few years too. It's quite hilarious. *********.

  @sabaone @NatWest The current account on the online bank goes back 7 years, but the credit card goes back only six months. The customer service bods say they can only access back a year. Sounds like a fob off to me.

  @NatWest_Help customer service at natwest is dead. Got a platinum account that's useless. The insurance it comes with is worthless. Rang to complain, and they transferred me to the insurer I was complaining about. They tried to fob me off by transferring me to someone else. Joke.

  @stephenpollard Tesco/NatWest comparison assumes all businesses are the same. But Rail is a natural monopoly and already depends heavily on the state. It's a question of public service versus commercial service. Rails different as passengers can't switch provider in any meaningful sense.

  @guinevere_86157 19% is high by historical standards, and compares favourably with other Retail Banks e.g. RBS was down at 4% before the financial crisis, and NatWest is currently 14%. The economic impact of 30% should also be considered as this is capital that can't be used to support lending.

  @AlvinMutyaba @augusteprompt Every bank lets you on and off ramp but for on ramp it’s limited as I say above. Some banks may be friendlier than others and allow slightly higher limits or open a discussion with you based on your personal circumstances (for example, Barclays will, NatWest won’t). I was able to off ramp with no limits and use the proceeds to buy my house, after strict due diligence around source of funds of course. Hence I no longer own or trade any crypto in this difficult market and with this unfriendly regime personally. Regarding leverage trading, I’m not sure. I imagine you could use Hyperliquid with a VPN, not sure if that will become impossible when the new restrictions land. Personally I’ve never traded leverage, that’s too much of a casino for me. I only ever traded spot. And obviously there’s lots of avenues for that. Hence I think it’s an exaggeration to say it’s dead here, but it will certainly become hard to justify once CGT is upped (circling back to my original point).

  As of 1st June I am going back to being solely self employed and will need a new business account as a Sole Trader. Given up with having a physical branch to go to as we literally only have a HSBC and a NatWest left in my town now 🙃 Have had both a Monzo and Lloyds LTD Company Business accounts before and have a Monzo personal account I quite like. I keep being told Revolut Business is really good now they have their banking license? Most of my payments will be made via BACs either way, only need access for myself and also needs to be able to link up to Xero. What Bank does everyone suggest to go with or even avoid?
