to ask why I couldn't purchase

Answer was non-sensical; and the representative didn't even know a

ETF had just been approved!
After being a customer for 17 years, I ended up closing my account and moving everything to Fidelity.

“There’s a lot of tax fraud and cheating that’s going on.” Treasury
@SecYellen
tells
@NorahODonnell
the proposed $600 IRS reporting requirement for banks is “absolutely not” a way for the government to peek into American’s pocketbooks but to hold billionaires accountable.

The rumors were correct. We are launching a new Layer 2 and we’re proud to be working w

to do so!
X1 is the name and it’s another part of our strategy to bring our users onchain and into the world of web3.
Follow

and

OKX is using Polygon CDK to build a ZK-powered Layer 2 network that connects the 50 million+ OKX user base to the broader Ethereum community, to allow anyone to take part in a truly secure and unified global onchain ecosystem.
It’s called X1.

I find it hard to believe that the only way Treasure Island residents can get access to food is via Uber Eats.
If residents despise Uber Eats that much, just don’t order from them?
If NO ONE is delivering to Treasure Island, then maybe it’s time to revisit the new regs?
